The Virgin and Child reproduces Benedetto da Maiano’s relief of around 1491–1495 in the Strozzi Chapel of Santa Maria Novella in Florence. The relief was commissioned by the wealthy Florentine banker Filippo Strozzi for his funerary chapel. This cast was made in London in 1866 by Giovanni Franchi and Son, at a time when Renaissance images of the Virgin and Child were celebrated. These tender depictions of mother and child influenced the work of British artists.
