It IS Botticelli - the Virgin of the Magnificat. No-one else can match that sweetness and delicate grace in portraying the Virgin.

The Virgin of the Pomegranate.

I have been lucky enough to go to Florence twice. Boticelli’s paintings are just amazing. I just prefer those classics to most modern renderings!
