Death of the Virgin in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, January 2008
Death of the Virgin
Marble
French, 2nd half of the 15th century
Accession # 17.190.733
This fragment, possibly part of a sculptural retable recounting events from the life of the Virgin Mary, shows the apostles gathered at her deathbed offering the last blessing. The diagonal composition with attendent apostles was a popular motif in German prints and paintings.
