拉斐尔圣母像《尼科利尼-库珀圣母》又名《大库珀圣母》超高清大图

作品简介

《尼科利尼-库珀圣母》(又称《大库珀圣母》)是意大利文艺复兴盛期画家拉斐尔的作品，描绘了圣母玛利亚与幼年耶稣基督，背景衬以湛蓝天空。

此画可能是拉斐尔离开佛罗伦萨前往罗马前创作的最后一幅佛罗伦萨时期画作。相较于数年前的同类作品《小库珀圣母》，本作构图更为复杂。圣母与圣子占据了整个画面，营造出庄严的视觉效果。两者通过肢体姿态与亲昵互动更紧密地联结——拉斐尔可能从达·芬奇处习得了这种自然亲情的表现手法，而对婴孩活力的刻画则令人联想到米开朗基罗的作品：充满感染力的圣子顽皮地伸手抓向圣母的衣襟，仿佛渴望哺乳。两幅画作均以藏家姓氏命名。

圣母胸衣边缘右中部题有铭文"MDVIII.R.V.PIN"，表明此作由乌尔比诺的拉斐尔绘于1508年。

The Niccolini-Cowper Madonna, also known as the Large Cowper Madonna, is a painting by the Italian High Renaissance artist Raphael, depicting Mary and Jesus Christ as the Christ Child, against a blue sky.

The painting may have been the last of Raphael's Florentine paintings before he left for Rome. It is more complex than a similar painting the Small Cowper Madonna of a few years earlier. The Virgin and Child fill the canvas, creating an imposing effect. The two are more closely related, both by the positioning of their bodies and their intimacy. Raphael may have derived the talent for creating a natural intimacy through Leonardo da Vinci. The portrayal of the infant's energy is reminiscent of the works of Michelangelo. The compelling, playful Child reaches for the Madonna's top as if wanting to nurse. Both paintings bear the name of their former owners.

An inscription on the painting, center right on the border of Madonna's bodice: MDVIII.R.V.PIN tells that it was painted in 1508 by Raphael of Urbino.
