EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Bernard van Orley's "Virgin and Child with Angels" from 1518. The oil on wood masterpiece, measuring 85.4x69.9 cm, is housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The painting depicts a scene of profound religious significance, featuring the Virgin Mary cradling baby Jesus while surrounded by celestial angels. The garden setting adds an element of tranquility and natural beauty to the composition. Van Orley's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing both the humility and grace of the Madonna as she gazes lovingly at her divine child. The biblical references are abundant, symbolizing themes of motherhood, faith, and devotion. The Flemish influence is apparent through the intricate architectural elements that adorn the background - a testament to Van Orley's skill as a painter during this Renaissance period. The inclusion of a fountain further enhances the sense of serenity within this sacred space. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder of Christianity's rich artistic heritage and its enduring impact on Western culture. Its timeless beauty continues to inspire viewers today, transporting them back to an era where art was not only visually stunning but also deeply meaningful.
