Embleem met Maria en Kind die vereerd worden door zielen in de hemel en een man 1620

This 17th-century engraving by Boëtius Adamsz. Bolswert, titled "Embleem met Maria en Kind die vereerd worden door zielen in de hemel en een man," depicts a scene of religious devotion. The Virgin Mary and child are positioned at the top, surrounded by angels and heavenly figures, while below, a group of people kneel in prayer. The scene is rich in symbolism, with the crescent moon beneath Mary referencing the Immaculate Conception, and the figures in heaven signifying divine favor. The artwork is a powerful representation of faith and piety, characteristic of the Baroque era. This engraving, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a small yet detailed piece measuring only 140 mm by 97 mm.
