IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 28233 accession number: M.56 & A-1904 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Saturday 6 August 2011 updated: Thursday 18 January 2024 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: Glass panel of tall and slender outline, with a Gothic arch at the top clipped around the edges. It is gilded, incised and painted in red, blue and green, probably using an oil medium, along the foliate border which frames the two scenes. The Enthroned Virgin and Child are flanked by four figures, two at either side. The Virgin’s throne is rather monumental, surmounted by a gable and two pinnacles. The Child is represented holding a small orb. A smaller Annunciation is decorated in a pseudo-predella at the bottom of the panel. The borders of the panel are ornate with swirls of foliage, alternatively painted in red and green. The wooden frame (A) has gesso additions and is painted and gilded. The frame is carved along the two long sides with foliate motifs. On the top, the frame is sculpted with the figures of God the Father directly above the Man of Sorrow, and flanked by the Annunciate Angel at the left and the Virgin at the right. At the bottom, the frame ends with a reverse triangle terminating with a decorated knob. object type: Panel: Virgin and Child enthroned with four saints, with below, the Annunciation, painted, gilded, and silvered under glass, in an associated gessoed and gilt wood frame title: painting under glass LICENSING --------- text license status: CC0 image license status: CC-BY-NC-SA OWNERSHIP --------- instutition: The Fitzwilliam Museum department: Applied Arts creditline: Bequeathed by F.
