"Madonna and Child with musical angels" is a 1485 woodcut by Albrecht Dürer, depicting the Virgin Mary holding the Christ child. The image is framed by two angels, one playing a lute and the other a harp, who create a musical atmosphere around the divine figures. Dürer's mastery of detail is evident in the meticulous rendering of the drapery, the angels' wings, and the foliage behind Mary. This piece exemplifies Dürer’s early work and showcases the artist's ability to capture the beauty and spirituality of the subject matter. This artwork is housed in the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, Germany.
