D’après Andrea del Sarto (1486–1530), La Madone du Sac (after the fresco in the Chiostro della Santissima Annunziata, Florence), 1877 Engraving on wove paper. This finely executed engraving by Achille Gilbert reproduces Andrea del Sarto’s celebrated fresco La Madone du Sac, painted in 1525 in the cloister of the Annunziata in Florence. The composition presents the Virgin Mary tenderly holding the Christ Child, while St. Joseph sits nearby with an open book. Gilbert’s interpretation, published in 1877 in the Gazette des Beaux-Arts, reflects the 19th-century fascination with Renaissance devotional painting, making such masterpieces accessible to collectors and connoisseurs across Europe.
