About the piece
Painted in 1863 by Adolf von Becker, this work is a sophisticated copy after the Spanish Baroque master Bartolomé Esteban Murillo. The scene captures the Virgin Mary ascending to heaven, surrounded by playful cherubs amidst soft, atmospheric clouds. Her upward gaze and prayerful gesture are illuminated by a divine golden glow, contrasting beautifully with the deep lapis blue of her cloak.
