Support – Gorgious and notable painting, high quality giant scan, one can see the surface of the painting and each and every little crack and brushwork. The blue colour is holdig together the sky, the garments and the textile under the Child. ^{And before somebody starts arguing, paintings in the Renaissance were often painted by several old masters, that cooperated in workshops - that is not an issue. Not here not anywhere, that's usual standard procedure throug the Renaissance and also art history, see at Atelier.} Hafspajen (talk) 12:43, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
