Maria met Christuskind en Johannes de Doper 1633 - 1664

This etching, created between 1633 and 1664 by the Flemish artist Jan Miel, depicts a scene from the Bible. The artwork shows the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child and John the Baptist. The composition is intimate and focused on the figures, with the three figures interacting with each other. This etching is part of a series by Jan Miel that were inspired by the works of Raphael and show his admiration for the Italian Renaissance. The detail of the drawing, particularly of the figures' clothing and the drapery, is characteristic of Miel's work. The etching is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum.
