Maria met kind en twee vrouwelijke heiligen 1826

"Maria met kind en twee vrouwelijke heiligen," an 1826 lithograph by Austrian artist Johann Nepomuk Strixner, depicts the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child. The composition showcases two female saints seated on either side of Mary. One saint holds a book and a basket of eggs, and the other, with a book in her lap, is reaching towards the Christ Child, who holds an apple in his left hand. The scene, set against a mountainous landscape, features a background of angels flying in the sky. Strixner's lithograph captures the reverence and spirituality of the subject matter through detailed renderings of the figures and their surroundings.
