Botticelli (1445-1510) Madonna & Child Enthroned Poster

Alessandro di Mariano di Vanni Filipepi called Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510) Madonna and Child Enthroned. c, 1470. Florence, Italy. Recently (12-5-2024) this stunningly beautiful Botticelli auctioned for 8.6 million pounds (about 11 million dollars US) plus auction fees making the total about 10 million pounds which is about 12.75 million dollars US, triple the estimate. There were 9 bidders. The size of the painting was about 32 3/4 inches by 17 7/8 inches. This fine art print is (including frame and outer margin) 38.4 inches by 25.4 inches ... roughly similar in size compared to the actual painting. The colours are somewhat digitally enhanced (a bit more colour). A damaged lower right corner of the frame has been digitally restored. I made Mary's robe a bit bluer which was nearly black in the some 554 year old painting. I like this result. I hope you will love this. This certainly is a beautiful Botticelli Madonna and Child Enthroned devotional image! It appears to be unfinished when I look at the 4 pillars in background ... they look more like preliminary sketches that were never painted? Mark Edward Westerfield 2024
