Madonna with Sleeping Child

Artist	Andrea Mantegna
Year	1465-1470
Medium	glue-tempera on canvas
Dimensions	43 cm × 32 cm (17 in × 13 in)
Location	Gemäldegalerie, Berlin

Intended for private devotion, it dispenses with the two figures' usual haloes in favour of a more intimate, simple and tender approach. Mantegna draws on Donatello's motif of Mary's face touching the child, whilst they are both enveloped in a brocade mantle against a black background.

There is a dialogue about this painting in the novel "Lampioon küßt Mädchen und kleine Birken. Abenteuer eines Wanderers" by the German writer Manfred Hausmann de .
