Madonna mit Kind in einem Rosenkranz

Französische Grafik 1285–1700, um 1490

The image displays a woman standing on a crescent moon, holding a child in her left arm. The woman has a calm expression, wears a crown, and has straight hair falling from under the crown. She is clothed in a long red robe with hints of an undergarment showing. The child is wrapped in a cloth and seated facing slightly forward. The scene is framed by emanating rays and a floral border, with the woman's head surrounded by a halo and almond-shaped elements. The background features decorative patterns with floral motifs and scrolls.
