注意事项
On occasion, Christie's has a direct financial interest in the outcome of the sale of certain lots consigned for sale. This will usually be where it has guaranteed to the Seller that whatever the outcome of the auction, the Seller will receive a minimum sale price for the work. This is known as a minimum price guarantee. This is such a lot.

拍品专文

As the final essay on the theme of the Madonna and Child, the present work is a summary of many of the earlier versions. Having found a solution for the lighting of the scene, Dürer reintroduces the crowning angel, the landscape in the distance and even the little songbird, reinstating the symbolic richness and detail of the earlier Madonnas whilst maintaining the monumental quality of more recent works.
