Madonna met kind 1618 - 1655

"Madonna met kind" is an etching by Cornelis Schut, created between 1618 and 1655. This artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts the Virgin Mary cradling the Christ Child, a popular subject in religious art. Schut's delicate hatching technique creates a sense of depth and volume, highlighting the Madonna's loving gaze upon her son. The etching's small size (99 mm by 77 mm) suggests it was likely intended for private devotional use.
