English: Gradual from Santa Maria degli Angeli (Folio 148) |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
The cutting from folio 148 depicts the Birth of the Virgin in an initial G. This initial begins the introit to the Mass for the feast of the Birth of the Virgin (September 8). The letter G overgrown by rich foliage with lilies, opens into the interior of St Anne's bedroom. Having given birth to a daughter, she sits up on her bed and glances at her child, who is about to be bathed. A maiden with the heavenly child on her lap is testing the temperature of the water in the bowl, while another adds some more water to it. The iconography is Sienese, faithfully following the composition of Pietro Lorenzetti's altarpiece for Siena cathedral. |
