Madonna and Child 

Luca Giordano, a prominent Italian Baroque painter, captured the tender moment of a sleeping Christ Child in his "Madonna and Child." The Virgin Mary gently cradles the infant Jesus, who rests peacefully in her arms. This painting is a testament to Giordano's skill in depicting the human form with a lifelike quality. The soft, warm tones and the intimate setting create a sense of tranquility and devotion. While specific details of the painting's creation date and location are unknown, it demonstrates the continued popularity of devotional imagery during Giordano's lifetime.
