The Madonna and Child with the Abbot Ludwig von Churchwalden

Wolfgang The Goldsmith after Master E.S.

National Gallery of Art

The image features two full-bodied figures and one partial figure inside a framed archway. The central figure is a woman standing upright with long hair beneath a halo, wearing a long robe and holding a child. The child, framed by a halo, clutches a small flower. The woman's expression is serene, and both are barefoot. To the left, a smaller figure bows slightly and holds a staff with a circular ornament, wearing a long robe. The archway has decorative carving and leads to an interior with arched windows and a tiled floor. The background shows architectural elements like pillars and a vaulted ceiling. An ornate border surrounds the main image with floral and scroll patterns.
