Madonna of the Green Cushion

Madonna of the green cushion, Solario

This work is curious because we see the Virgin in a mother scene, breastfeeding her son as a baby, and not necessarily as a God. His name comes clearly from the green cushion placing in the foreground. This may seem only a detail, but it is perfectly integrated into the group with the Virgin and her son. When seeing the image, it transmits us the comfort of the Virgin, creating a scene of tenderness and familial well-being.

It is unknown when he painted it, it is even thought that he may even be a nephew of the latter.
