アンドレア・デル・サルトは、ミケランジェロとラファエロがローマに活躍の場を移した後、フィレンツェの盛期ルネサンスを牽引した画家です。その工房からは、次代を担う多くの画家が羽ばたきました。彼の作品は16世紀を通じ、この町の美術に絶大な影響を与えることとなります。 これはサルトの成熟期の作品です。聖母と幼児キリストは身振りによってリズミカルにつながり、幅広い陰影のなかで親密さが醸し出されます。聖母のモデルはおそらく後にサルトの妻となった女性で、ほかの作品にもしばしば登場します。一方、幼児キリストのやや筋肉質な肉体は、同時代の彫刻の表現と共通します。もっとも、表情や巻き毛を描写する際は、実際の子供をモデルにしたことでしょう。背後のカーテンは最近の補筆です。 本作と同構図の作品がカナダのオタワにあります。二つの作品は図柄の寸法が同一で、赤外線写真に見られる下書きの線が重なるため、同じカルトーネ（原寸大下絵）を写し取って、ほぼ同時代の制作されたものと推測されています。（出典: 展示室作品解説パネル）

Andrea del Sarto, a leading figure of the High Renaissance, exerted a tremendous influence on Florentine art throughout the sixteenth century. In creating this intimate representation of the Virgin and Child, a painting of his mature period, Andrea is thought to have used his future wife as model. The head of the Infant Christ is also based on a living model, although the sinewy expression of the body follows the sculptural style of the time. A painting with the same composition is held in Ottawa, Canada; presumably it was executed around the same time employing the same cartoon as used for the present work.
