Fra Filippo Lippi created his Madonna and Child with Stories of the Life of St Anne in 1452. This painting is also a celebration of Mary’s own birth. The background scenes are dedicated to the Virgin’s mother, St Anne, and include the first meeting of Anne and her husband-to-be Joachim, and a scene of the subsequent birth of Mary. In the foreground is the Madonna with her child.
