Bellini's Techniques: Mastering Light, Color, and Composition

The painting is not merely a depiction of Mary and Jesus; it is a rich tapestry of Christian symbolism. The parapet on which the Child stands represents the threshold between the human and divine realms. The Madonna's protective embrace and the playful gesture of the Child suggest the nurturing and redemptive roles they play in Christian belief. The landscape, with its tranquil river and distant hills, symbolizes the peace and harmony that the Virgin Mary brings to the world.
