Polyptych of Madonna and child with saints

Carlo Crivelli Β· 1468

Why it's great

Mary and the baby Jesus sit in the center of a golden altarpiece, with saints on either side in individual panels. Carlo Crivelli painted it in 1468, and his gold and jewelry are so detailed they look like they could be touched.
