Madonna Nursing the Christ Child, c. 1670. Creator: Bartolome Esteban Murillo (Spanish
Madonna Nursing the Christ Child, c. 1670. One of the finest of the rare drawings by Murillo, this sheet is a study for Virgin and Child, commissioned for the family chapel of the Marques de Santiago in Madrid and now at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Prized today for their dynamism, Murillos drawings were not intended as finished works of art to be collected but served the practical purpose of working out the positions of the figures. Here, the artist suggested the tender bond between mother and child with the poignant connection of their gazes. His animated line and zigzag hatching communicate the immediacy of the moment

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Bartolome Esteban Murillo's exquisite drawing of "Madonna Nursing the Christ Child" from around 1670. Considered one of Murillo's finest and rarest works, this study was commissioned for the family chapel of the Marques de Santiago in Madrid and is now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Murillo's drawings were not intended as finished pieces to be collected, but rather served a practical purpose in working out the positions of figures. In this particular drawing, he beautifully portrays the tender bond between mother and child through their poignant connection and shared gaze. The artist's animated line work and zigzag hatching add a sense of immediacy to the moment captured on paper. Rendered with pen and brown ink, brush, brown wash over red and black chalk, with traces of white highlights, this artwork showcases Murillo's mastery in capturing emotion through delicate lines. With its framing lines in brown ink adding depth to the composition, this piece exemplifies his skillful technique. Preserved by Heritage Art/Heritage Images, this print allows viewers to appreciate every intricate detail within Murillo's masterpiece. It serves as a testament to his artistic brilliance during Spain's 17th century art scene while reminding us of the timeless beauty found within maternal love depicted here.
