About the piece
Created around 1630 by Jacques Blanchard, this painting captures the intimate bond between the Virgin Mary and the Christ Child. The work reflects the influence of the Venetian school on French Baroque art, seen in the rich, saturated reds of the garment and the gentle, atmospheric modeling of the faces. The dark, undecorated background focuses all attention on the warmth and humanity of the central figures.
