Although this quote is largely interpreted as a metaphor for Lily looking for a new queen or mother figure‚ and perhaps August being that mother‚ I believe that it has another meaning as well.

We know that the subject matter of both Cimabue’s Madonna and Child Enthroned and Giotto’s Madonna Enthroned depicts the Virgin mother holding her son Jesus Christ upon a golden throne with angels at either shoulder. After looking at Cimabue’s work‚ it is debatable whether his apprentice Giottos surpassed the man. In manners of skill‚ Giotto’s more classical and naturalist style took on other stylistic components that very well exhibited a 3-dimensional space upon a 2-dimensional plane. In personal
