Original artwork description:

An emblematic painting in a contemporary figurative style inspired by the Blessed Virgin, protector of the city of Siena from its fulcrum, the famous Piazza del Campo, whose recall is outlined on the right of the work with a view of the Palazzo Pubblico and the Torre del Mangia. The square, with its peculiar shell shape, was repaved during the Government of the Nine, a semi-democratic group in power between 1287 and 1355. Piazza del Campo, in fact, was conceived with a division into nine sections both as a tribute to the Government and to the mantle of the Madonna, guardian of the city and bearer of a divine message.
