Madonna in Glory
Madonna in Glory c1665-75 by Italian Painter Carlo Dolci (1616 – 1686); was a painter of the Baroque period and was known for his highly finished religious artwork.
This is a Christian Art portrait of Mary Magdalene or the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus with the light of GOD upon her.
Dolci use of color, light and shadow creates a beautiful soft and endearing religious art piece; as she stands on the clouds and surrounded by more clouds with a warn orange glow behind her head accented by a circular array of stars; of which eight are visible to the viewer.
She is dressed simply with a dark kerchief over her head, a read under garment that cover over with a blue top dress and lastly a dark grey mesh scarf lays across her chest from shoulder to shoulder.
To complement this piece I created an elaborate yet beautiful embossed border with gold tones and added the title of the artwork Madonna in Glory at the bottom.

Carlo fæddist í Flórens; barnabarn málara móður sinnar í fjölskyldunni sem lærði á unga aldri hjá ítalska barokknum Jacopo Vignali (1592 – 1664).
Ólíkt mörgum öðrum málurum var Carlo ekki afkastamikill málari; oft tekið vikur að vinna á aðeins einum hluta mannslíkamans.
Þetta gerði hann óhæfan fyrir freskur í stórum stíl, asd so he mainly painted small scale and half body length portraits; þó hann hafi málað nokkrar andlitsmyndir í fullri lengd líka.
Þar sem Dolci var dyggur kristinn maður er mikið af verkum hans trúarlegs eðlis, sýna sterka trú sína og trú. He also had a daughter Agnese Dolci (1635 – 1686), who was an accomplished artist in her own right that helped produced copies of his works.
