Virgin and Child with four angels

This relief depicts the Virgin holding the Child surrounded by four angels. Three angels between them hold a censer or incense burner, a flaming torch and a crown, while a fourth has given a scroll to the Christ child to read. At the foot of the steps on which they kneel is a prominent carved signature, 'OPUS MINI' ('the work of Mino'). This relief may originally have formed part of a larger structure which would have made the setting more intelligible and scale of the signature more appropriate.这件浮雕刻画了怀抱圣婴的圣母，四周环绕着四位天使。其中三位天使分别手持香炉、燃烧的火炬与王冠，第四位天使则将一卷文书递予基督圣婴以供其阅览。在他们所跪的台阶底部，刻有一处醒目的雕凿署名："OPUS MINI"（意为“米诺之作”）。该浮雕原本可能是某一更大整体结构的组成部分，如此一来，整体场景的叙事逻辑将更为清晰，且该署名的尺寸也将更为适配。
