"Maria gekroond door Christus" is a 16th-17th century engraving by the Master of the Dice, housed in the Rijksmuseum. The detailed print depicts a scene of the coronation of Mary, with Christ crowning her as Queen of Heaven. Angels surround them as God the Father watches from above. This artwork, likely inspired by Renaissance religious imagery, showcases the master's skill in composition and attention to detail. It is a testament to the enduring power of religious art during the period.
