"Die Muttergottes erscheint einem Heiligen und überreicht ihm ihren Mantel" (The Virgin Mary Appears to a Saint and Presents Him with Her Mantle) is a drawing by Flemish Baroque artist Cornelis Schut. This work depicts a scene of divine intervention, with the Virgin Mary and a group of angels appearing to a kneeling saint, offering him her garment. The dynamic composition, with figures dramatically arranged in the clouds, uses subtle shading to create depth and volume, highlighting the celestial setting. This artwork is a prime example of Schut's talent for capturing religious narratives with expressive linework and a masterful understanding of light and shadow.
