old engraving style
This engraving titled "Maria met Christus en Johannes de Doper als kind" was created by Dutch artist Zacharias Dolendo between 1590 and 1601. It depicts the Virgin Mary, the infant Christ, and John the Baptist, who presents Mary with a bowl of grapes. This small but detailed artwork is a fine example of the engraving style common in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, showcasing a balance of realism and symbolism that was characteristic of the period. This piece is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
