The Virgin seated with her head resting on her right hand, holding the sleeping infant Christ on her lap, after Reni 1623 - 1680

This print, titled "The Virgin Seated with her head resting on her right hand, holding the sleeping infant Christ on her lap, after Reni," was created by Jean Boulanger between 1623 and 1680. This etching, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, depicts the Virgin Mary in a contemplative pose, cradling the sleeping Christ child. It is a copy after a painting by Guido Reni, a famous Italian Baroque artist. The delicate lines and shading create a sense of peace and serenity in this poignant image, which is a popular subject in Christian art, emphasizing the tenderness and devotion of the Madonna and Child.
