This 18th century religious oil painting captures a tender yet poignant moment: the Virgin Mary, robed in deep red, gazes downward with quiet sorrow, while the Christ child, holding a delicate rose as a prelude to the Passion, looks up towards his mother with trust and innocence. The composition quietly conveys both maternal love and the foretelling of sacrifice. Unsigned. Well presented in a distressed frame with a gilt inner edge. On canvas on stretchers.
