Coronation of the Virgin

Master of the Fröndenberg Altarpiece

Cleveland Museum of Art

The painting depicts a scene with two central figures. The figure on the left is a woman with a halo, wearing a blue cloak over a green dress. She has her hands clasped together in front of her, being touched by the hand of the figure on the right. The figure on the right is a man with a halo and a crown, wearing a red robe over a green shirt. He sits on a throne-like chair. Behind the figures are several smaller angelic figures, some with wings. The background features a gold-colored wall with architectural elements, including arches and a balcony with four figures. A church building is visible behind the angels on either side. The woman's halo and the man's halo are both gold-colored and circular. The man's crown is also gold-colored. The scene appears to be set indoors, with a formal or ceremonial atmosphere.
