Madonna with St. John the Baptist and Donatus
By Andrea del Verrocchio.
In this piece Verrocchio uses one point perspective to create a seperation between the two figures in the forground and Madonna with her child. There is some semblance of overlaping with the child and Madonna and by placing the chair above then two men in the front Madonna becomes the focal point and seems to be further back from the two men whos heads and sholiders also seem to point towards the vanising point with some help from St. Johns hand.
