Albrecht Dürer's "Mary and Child, crowned by an angel and St. Anna" is a masterful pencil drawing that showcases the artist's renowned attention to detail and skill in capturing human form. This piece, likely a preparatory study for a larger work, portrays the Madonna and Child, with Mary's mother St. Anna, in a tender moment of devotion. The angel, hovering above Mary, gently places a crown upon her head, symbolizing her divine role. Dürer's masterful use of shading and cross-hatching, evident in the finely rendered drapery and facial features, lend the artwork a sense of depth and realism.
