The Adoration of the Christ Child, Cosimo Rosselli, c. 1485 - c. 1507
Cosimo Rosselli was a successful independent master and teacher whose work is typical of artistic production in Florence during the second half of the 15th century. This Nativity scene, which has survived in remarkably good condition, is representative of the Florentine feel for design and colouration, while also showing Rosselli’s reaction to recently imported works by Flemish painters.
