THE MADONNA OF VICTORY
Madonna della Vittoria
MANTEGNA
1496

    The figures standing on the left of the Madonna and Child are St. Michael the Archangel, with St. James behind, holding a Cross standard; on the right, kneeling is St. Elizabeth with the Young St. John the Baptist just above and to the right, are [a guess] St. Roch and St. George. The figure kneeling on the left is not identified; he may be a donor or a relative of the donor.
