I need revision!

This little painting is part of a group made by four tabernacles created/done by Beato Angelico, one of the most important renaissance artists in Florence. It was commissioned/ordered by fra Giovanni Masi(friar) for the church of Santa Maria Novella and this is the reason why it shows many gothic elements like the gold background, many decorations and pinnacles. In the centre there is Virgin Mary, upright and covered by a blue cloak that doesn't hide her silhouette. She is holding the Baby, dressed with a rose-coloured cloth that seems soft and delicate, in this way Beato Angelico underlined the human being of Christ, emphasized also by his gestures. In fact he is putting his face on his mother's cheek, a very natural movement for a child; looking carefully at the representation we can notice this tenderness.

Around them there are many angels positioned like a frame and such as a decoration. On the top God the Father is looking at them, giving us the example.

This work is also called as Madonna della stella or Madonna of the star, because of the star on her head, a symbol of purity and perfection, the same as the entire work because Beato Angelico was able to connect two different styles in a very small painting.
