Maria met Kind 1819 - 1829

"Maria met Kind" is a lithograph by Jean François Badoureau, a French artist who lived from 1789 to 1822. This artwork depicts a tender moment between the Virgin Mary and the Christ child, with Mary's loving gaze focused on Jesus. The composition highlights the close bond between mother and son. The lithograph was produced between 1819 and 1829, during Badoureau's short but prolific career, and measures 670 mm in height and 527 mm in width. It is a testament to Badoureau's skill in replicating the detail of Raphael's original Madonna and Child, demonstrating the popularity of Renaissance subjects during this time.
