"Maria met kind in rotslandschap" is a black and white print created by Achille Martinet in 1850. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts the Virgin Mary seated on a rocky landscape with the Christ child nestled in her lap. The image is a classic depiction of the Madonna and Child theme, a motif popular in religious art throughout history. Martinet's use of light and shadow highlights the intimacy and tenderness between mother and son, while the rocky landscape provides a backdrop for this devotional scene.
