Maria met het Christuskind, de jonge Johannes de Doper en de H. Elisabet 1660

This 1660 etching by Conrad Lauwers depicts the biblical scene of the Visitation. Mary, mother of Jesus, is seated and holding the infant Christ, while Elizabeth, John the Baptist's mother, stands and embraces Mary's pregnant belly. The scene is set in a garden, with a tree in the background and a lamb at Mary's feet, signifying the innocence of Christ and the coming Messiah. This artwork exemplifies the style of 17th-century Dutch Baroque etching, which emphasized detailed, expressive figures and natural settings. The print is relatively small, measuring only 221 mm in height and 171 mm in width.
