Francesco Cozza's etching, "Virgin and Angels Watching Over the Sleeping Infant Jesus," presents a tender moment of divine protection. The Virgin Mary sits with a sleeping infant Jesus in her lap while two angels watch over them. The composition is full of soft curves and delicate lines, emphasizing the peaceful atmosphere. Cozza's detailed rendering of drapery and the angels' wings adds depth and richness to the scene. This work, created by the Italian artist between 1605 and 1682, is a fine example of the Baroque era's penchant for religious themes and emotive depiction.
