==Notable types and individual works== [[File:Czestochowska.jpg|thumb|right|180px|[[Black Madonna of Częstochowa]], Poland]] There are a large number of articles on individual works of various sorts in [[:Category:Virgin Mary in art]] and its sub-category. See also the incomplete [[List of depictions of the Virgin and Child]]. The term "Madonna" is often applied to representations of Mary that were not created by Italians. A small selection of examples include: *''[[Golden Madonna of Essen]]'', the earliest large-scale sculptural example in Western Europe and a precedent for the polychrome wooden processional sculptures of Romanesque France, a type known as Throne of Wisdom *''[[Madonna of humility]]'', depicting a Madonna sitting on the ground, or low cushions *''[[Madonna and Child (Duccio)|Madonna and Child]]'', a painting by Duccio di Buoninsegna, from around the year 1300 *''[[The Black Madonna of Częstochowa]]'' (''Czarna Madonna'' or ''Matka Boska Częstochowska'' in Polish) icon, which was, according to legend, painted by St. Luke the Evangelist on a cypress table top from the house of the Holy Family *''[[Benois Madonna|Madonna and Child with Flowers]]'', possibly one of two works begun by [[Leonardo da Vinci]] *''[[Madonna Eleusa]]'' (of tenderness) has been depicted both in the Eastern and Western churches. *''[[Madonna of the Steps]]'', a relief by Michelangelo *''[[Madonna della seggiola]]'', by [[Raphael]] *''[[Madonna with the Long Neck]]'', by [[Parmigianino]] *''[[The Madonna of Port Lligat]]'', the name of two paintings by Salvador [[Dalí]] created in 1949 and 1950 ===Paintings=== <gallery widths="170" heights="170" caption="Madonna in Art"> File:Como - San Fedele - Madonna in Mandorla.jpg|''Madonna in Mandorla'', Wolfgang Sauber, 12th century File:Duccio The-Madonna-and-Child-with-Angels-1.jpg|''Madonna and Angels'', [[Duccio]], 1282 File:Our Mother of Perpetual Help.jpg|[[Our Mother of Perpetual Help]], probably an early Cretan work, 13th or 14th century.
