Madonna Del Garofano Italian Tapestry – 20 in. x 24 in. Cotton/Viscose/Polyester by Raphael

Madonna del Garofano, also known as The Madonna of the Pinks is an Italian jacquard woven wall tapestry. The artwork is a rendering of an early devotional painting attributed to Italian Renaissance master Raphael. The painting depicts a youthful Virgin Mary playing with the Christ child and handing him carnations. These flowers, whose botanical name is dianthus (Greek for ‘flower of God’), are a premonition of Christ's Passion – according to Christian legend, the flower first appeared when the Virgin wept at the Crucifixion.
