EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 16th century oil on panel painting, created in the Workshop of Bernard van Orley, depicts the revered biblical figure of the Virgin Mary cradling the infant Jesus. The tender moment between mother and child is captured with a sense of devotion and warmth, as Mary gazes down at her son with a loving expression. The divine infant, with his chubby cheeks and plump body, reaches up to touch his mother's face, creating an intimate connection between them. This artwork, which dates from approximately 1520-1530, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Low Countries during the Renaissance period. The figures are rendered in vibrant colors and intricate detail, with Mary's flowing robes and the delicate folds of the infant's garments adding to the lifelike quality of the painting. The Virgin and Child is a popular biblical theme, and this depiction is reminiscent of other works from the period, such as Our Lady of Folgoet, Our Lady of Mariazell, and Our Lady of Refuge. The painting would have been a cherished devotional piece for a private collection or a church, providing comfort and inspiration to those who viewed it. This artwork is now a valuable addition to the collections of the Rijksmuseum, where it can be admired by visitors from around the world. The painting serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of Christian art and culture on European history and heritage.
