    What an absolutely stunning painting. There is so much going on – I love the angels at the top in the yellowish glow surrounding them and Mary and the Child and then below the darkness in blues and greens roiling like stormy seas. The two men are obviously supplicants to Mary and below her (literally and figuratively) in importance – they want something from her, not the other way around. Beautiful. Sicily is soooooooo on my list of places to visit!!! <3 🙂
