Giovanni della Robbia, Madonna with Child and Saint John the Baptist as a Child (1528)
This terracotta existed until 1911 in an antique tabernacle located in the parish’s church garden and in 1528 was commissioned by the Company of Piazza.
This piece is attribuited to Giovanni della Robbia and displays the typical features of the late Della Robbia school as seen in the gaudy polychromy, the characteristic compositional arrangement and the typology of figures, as well as in the elaborate architectonic frame.
