Graduated at the "Duccio di Buoninsegna" Art Institute, Silvia Salvadori holds a degree in Art Conservation from the University of Siena and now she is specialized in the reproduction of medieval icons and art works by authors such as Cimabue, Duccio di Buoninsegna, Simone Martini, Pietro Lorenzetti, Giotto, Sano di Pietro, Spinello Aretino and Piero della Francesca.
Silvia Salvadori's work is probably the last precious testimonial that preserves and passes on a culture that represents the history of a people whose land and spirit can awaken a sense of wonder in our souls. Her works of art emanate from an interest which is, above all, accurate, masterly and characterized by ongoing research and experimentation. It reaches in time throughout the entire Tuscan region, starting from Arezzo, with the hidden treasures of its churches, moving onto Florence's medieval art, which was perhaps overshadowed by the splendour of the renaissance, and finally reaching Siena, with the sacred art of its icons and Bicchernes civic paintings with historical decorations on wooden covers containing the accounting records of the municipal era.
The most famous Silvia Salvadori's art works propose the theme of "The Virgin and Child". This theme has had an important role throughout the art history because beyond its symbolic religious functions, it allows one to analyze the relationship between mother and child in its many aspects (as Sigmund Freud did when undertook a psychoanalytic examination of Leonardo in his essay "Leonardo da Vinci, A Memory of His Childhood").
" The Virgin and Child " theme is central in the Medieval Art. Many specific images of Mary whit Jesus, both painted and sculptured, have achieved fame, either as objects of religious veneration or for their intrinsic artistic qualities. Many of the most renowned painters and sculptors in the history of art have turned their skills toward the creation of Madonna images. These artists include Duccio di Buoninsegna, Simone Martini, Pietro Lorenzetti, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo.
