"Maria met kind en twee engelen" (Mary with Child and Two Angels) is a 1599 etching by Dutch artist Jacob Matham. The artwork depicts the Virgin Mary cradling the baby Jesus while two angels gaze upon them, their wings outstretched. It is a typical example of the Baroque style, emphasizing drama and emotion through the use of light and shadow, and the detailed depiction of the figures. This print was likely commissioned by a wealthy patron and is now housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, showcasing the artistry and devotion of the time.
