Virgin Enthroned with the Christ Child (right wing of a triptych) with the Annunciation above; Christ on the Cross (left wing of a triptych) with the Nativity above

Puccio di Simone's Virgin Enthroned with the Christ Child belongs to this minor Florentine Trecento master's production of devotional panels in the tradition of Bernardo Daddi's workshop. Puccio was among Daddi's followers who maintained the Giottesque tradition into the third generation, producing altarpiece panels that combined Daddi's decorative refinement with the simpler workshop conventions appropriate for less prestigious commissions. His Virgin Enthroned panels demonstrate the broad dissemination of Florentine Trecento conventions through workshop production that served churches and private patrons who could not afford major masters' work.

This work demonstrates Gothic painting techniques.
