What does the original description of the The Metropolitan Museum of Art write about this 16th century work of art made by Albrecht Dürer? (© Copyright - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

Dürer traveled to Italy from 1505–7, in particular to Venice where he met Giovanni Bellini. The juxtaposition of the two paintings here by Bellini and Dürer shows their shared interests not only in rich color and meticulous attention to detail, but especially in simplicity of form. Dürer’s haunting devotional painting depicts Saint Anne, who was particularly venerated in Germany, with the Virgin and Child. Anne’s hand on her daughter's shoulder takes on a consolatory meaning, and her distant gaze suggests a premonition of Christ's Passion. Although this panel’s date and monogram were added later, the picture was likely painted in that year.
