About Madona Delle Pietre Dure (Madonna And Child)
In a series of images of the Madonna and Child, it is Dolci’s use shell gold — gold leaf ground to a powder and applied like paint — that upstages the central motif. The haloes are quasi-astronomical phenomena, a haze of gold around their heads. In the Detroit version, Mary’s halo is visualized like one of Saturn’s rings, with denser, brighter lines apparently casting a shadow on the golden cloud immediately next to it, which then explodes subtly from the aureole in a series of lightly traced zigzagging lines.
