Virgin and Child

Description The Virgin is a conservative type, holding the frontal Christ Child in a seated position. Her right hand originally held an object, possibly a flower, which is missing. The Virgin's physiognomy is French, though the drapery can be paralleled in other works of the 17th century.

Provenance William T. / Henry Walters Collection, Baltimore [date of acquisition unknown], by purchase; Walters Art Museum, 1931, by bequest.
