About the Item

This lovely 17th century painting was made in the last part of the European Renaissance period, also known as the high renaissance, late 17th century. This scene depicts the Madonna with her Child. Mary is the center of the panel, wearing a scarlet red cloak and dark blue robes underneath. Both her and the Christ are looking towards the right. The Child is holding a globus cruciger (Latin for "cross-bearing orb"), also known as "the orb and cross", is an orb surmounted by a cross. It has been a Christian symbol of authority since the Middle Ages, used on coins, in iconography, and with a scepter as royal regalia. The cross represents Christ's dominion over the orb of the world, literally held in the hand of an earthly ruler. In the iconography of Western art, when Christ himself holds the globe, he is called Salvator Mundi (Latin for "Savior of the World"). The scene is painted on a wooden reinforced panel.

Although the 18th century, the period of the Enlightenment in France, spawned thinkers who criticised the privileges of the clergy and the truthfulness of certain dogmas, the Roman Catholic faith was very much present in everyday life. Since king Louis XIV had issued the Edict of Fontainebleau in 1685, Protestantism was banned. This Madonna with child illustrates the daily practice of faith. Like many 18th-century Madonna statues...

Mechelen dolls are rare wooden devotional figurines (mainly walnut was used), which were made by some members of the Guild of Saint Luke.
