The National Museum of Fine Arts in Buenos Aires has featured ‘Coronation of the Virgin’ by Giovanni da Milano in its daily presentation of a work from the collection. The painting is currently displayed in the museum’s gallery devoted to European art from the 12th through the 16th century.
The museum’s notice describes the work as connected with the celestial and emphasizes the prominence of blue in the composition. It was made using tempera and gold, materials associated with the image’s luminous religious subject.
‘Coronation of the Virgin’ has belonged to the collection of the National Museum of Fine Arts since 1985. The institution’s presentation places the work within its permanent holdings rather than announcing a separate temporary exhibition or event.
Giovanni da Milano is identified by the museum as the artist, but the available notice does not provide additional biographical or curatorial information about the painting. It also gives no exhibition-specific opening or closing dates.
The work was highlighted by the museum on August 30, 2026, as part of its ‘Work of the Day’ feature. It remains on view in the European art gallery alongside the institution’s holdings from the 12th to the 16th century.
