EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Jan Brueghel and Hendrik van Balen, depicting a serene scene of Madonna and Child surrounded by a vibrant garland of flowers. Painted in 1625 on copper using oil, this masterpiece measures 21.6x17.1 cm and is housed at the Allen Memorial Art Museum in Oberlin College, Ohio. The image captures the tender moment between the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus as she lovingly breastfeeds him. The oval frame beautifully frames their half-length figures, emphasizing their divine connection. Tulips and roses adorn the garland, symbolizing purity and love respectively. The painting not only portrays religious iconography but also incorporates elements of still life with its meticulous depiction of flowers. This fusion highlights the artists' mastery in both genres. The castle depicted in the background adds an intriguing element to this composition, suggesting a sense of dwelling or housing for these holy figures. It invites viewers to contemplate deeper meanings behind this sacred scene. With its delicate brushwork and harmonious color palette, this artwork exemplifies Dutch art from that period while showcasing Brueghel's talent for botanical accuracy. Generously gifted to honor Phyllis Marian Jones' memory by her family, this remarkable piece continues to inspire awe among visitors at the Allen Memorial Art Museum—a testament to its enduring beauty even after centuries have passed since its creation.
