1470 (ca.), Andrea del Verrocchio, Madonna and Child -- Gemäldegalerie (Berlin)

From the museum label: Verrocchio received training as a goldsmith and was also famous as a sculptor. He presents a brilliant rendering of the haloes' gold decorations and of the gold embroidery. Later celebrities such as Leonardo da Vinci and Piero di Cosimo collaborated in his large workshop and jointly created many works. Determining the paintings' authorship is therefore difficult.
