Madonna with the Long Neck

This painting is only interesting to me because i cannot help but wonder why the painter decided to give Madonna the long neck, unlike most other paintings that have Madonna as a subject, also i think the child on Madonnas child is a little to big and placed in an awkward position compared to other paintings in this era and past. This was done by Parmigianino and can be seen in Galleria degli Uffizi, Florence. It is an oil on wood painting.
