This 1610 print by Justus Sadeler depicts the "Holy Virgin of Monferrato," a significant religious figure. The image is composed of a central panel showcasing the Virgin Mary and Child, surrounded by ornate architectural elements and four smaller panels featuring saints. These saints, identified by inscription as St. Francis, St. Margaret, St. Augustine, and St. Evaristus, are associated with the Monferrato region. Sadeler's precise engraving and attention to detail bring this devotional piece to life, showcasing the artistry of the early 17th century.
