This print of the Madonna and Child with St. John the Baptist, by the German artist William Unger, is a reproduction of a famous Renaissance masterpiece. The piece depicts the Virgin Mary sitting with her son Jesus, who is holding a cross, while John the Baptist kneels in front of them in a gesture of reverence. The artwork is a fine example of the traditional subject matter and composition commonly used in Renaissance art, and highlights the importance of faith in both the past and present. The print itself, created in 1861-1889, demonstrates the continued popularity of Renaissance art in the 19th century and can be found at the Rijksmuseum.
