Virgin and Child

Cleveland Museum of Art

A gold statue depicts a woman and a child. The woman wears a long dress, and her hair is covered by a crown-like object. She holds a book in her left hand and the child in her right arm. The child sits on her right arm and points at the book. A crescent-shaped object supports the woman from below. The statue shows signs of wear, with some areas appearing darker or more weathered than others. The background transitions from dark at the top to light at the bottom. The title of the artwork is "Virgin and Child".
