A tribute to the treasure trove of ecclesiastical art and architecture in the Diocese of Toledo.
With the exception of The Virgin and the Angels, this is probably Bouguereau's finest Madonna and child painting.
It's interesting. Academic painters like this were a laughing stock for much of the twentieth century, then people started valuing beauty again. People have had enough of elephant droppings being regarded as art.
Jeffery,I have to agree with both comments!
