This etching by Dutch artist Jacob Matham, created in 1607, depicts the Virgin Mary seated on a crescent moon, cradling the baby Jesus. The scene is framed by a halo of stars and surrounded by clouds with cherubs. The dramatic composition and detailed rendering of the figures are characteristic of Northern Renaissance art. "Maria met Kind op de maansikkel" is currently held in the Rijksmuseum.
