Baldung Grien, Hans (1484/5-1545)
'The Virgin and Child and the Dove of the Holy Spirit', 1512-1517. Seated on a flowery bank, the Virgin Mary holds the infant Jesus in her arms and is attended by two playful putti. In the lower left corner a tree stump and spray of flowers create a visual balance to the Virgin's long, flowing locks. The Dove of the Holy Spirit hovers and casts Divine rays over the scene. A putto in the lower right corner gently tugs at her cloak, while his playmate dominates the sky above, pulling the Virgin's drapery with him. PD, SL.5218-179
