Virgin and child flanked by angels 1736 - 1790

Stefano Mulinari's "Virgin and Child flanked by angels" is a black and white etching, created between 1736 and 1790. The artwork depicts the Virgin Mary holding the Christ child, with two angels kneeling beside them in adoration. The drawing, which is framed by a semicircular arch, was likely intended to be a study for a larger, more complex artwork. It exemplifies the intricate details and masterful rendering of the Baroque period. The drawing is currently part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art collection in New York City.
