EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a study for Raphael's renowned masterpiece, "The Virgin and Child, study for the Madonna di Foligno". Created in 1511, this exquisite artwork depicts the tender bond between the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus. The original chalk study by Raphael is housed in the esteemed British Museum in London. In this monochrome portrait, we see an outdoor scene where a mother lovingly gazes down at her child. Her eyes are closed as she embraces her role as a nurturing figure, embodying the essence of motherhood. The boy beside her stands with an air of innocence and curiosity, captivated by his mother's affectionate presence. This image beautifully captures the timeless concept of family and religious devotion. It evokes feelings of warmth and tranquility while highlighting Christian values such as love, care, and compassion. As we admire this snapshot from the 16th century through a lens from early 20th-century publication "The Studio Volume 29" we are reminded of how parenting transcends time. "The Virgin and Child" serves as a testament to Raphael's artistic genius that continues to inspire generations even today. Through this print collector's lens, we can appreciate every delicate stroke made by Raffaello Sanzio himself – one of history's most celebrated painters. This print allows us to bring home a piece of art history while honoring its profound significance within Christianity and celebrating the beauty found in maternal love.
