The Madonna of the Pomegranate was painted in circa 1487 with tempera on a wood panel by Sandro Botticelli. Sandro Botticelli is a well known Italian Renaissance artist from Florence, Italy. The use of the circular format, better known as a tondo, focuses the attention on the main characters, the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus, who are surrounded symmetrically by angels on each side.

The Virgin Mary is holding baby Jesus gently in her arms while holding a pomegranate in her left hand. The pomegranate being displayed has a few different interpretations of its meaning in the religious piece.
