All Virgin and Child in Christian Art

Works of Christian art whose central subject is the Virgin Mary, whether shown holding the infant Christ, receiving the angel Gabriel at the Annunciation, or venerated in her own right as in an apparition or a title such as Our Lady of Mercy or the Virgin of Guadalupe. A work whose central subject is a canonized saint who merely appears alongside Mary, such as a devotional scene of a monk adoring her, is still filed here when Mary and the infant Christ are themselves the work's own primary subject.
