About the sculpture
Sculptures of the Virgin and Child usually show her holding a flower or other item and him sitting upright on her left arm. But some diverge from the norm. Here, the Virgin is shown suckling the Christ Child. Their hands have broken off but originally they were probably touching.
Similar Virgins are found throughout the Lorraine and the Lower Rhine region, but the closest in style is a Virgin and Child from Chatenois, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
