Giovanni Bellini’s Madonna and Child and Carlo Crivelli’s Pieta are religious in nature and pertain to the life and death of Jesus Christ. Both works explore different themes on the same subject. Crivelli’s Madonna and Child represents a more human representation as the setting takes place in a room with familiar scenery and objects.
