Madonna is a 1701 oil by Unknown, a Flemish Baroque painting work, held at Groeningemuseum.
This painting depicts a tender scene of a mother and child. The mother, dressed in a white garment with a dark cloak, gently holds the child, who is nude except for a cloth around his waist. The child grasps an apple in his right hand and reaches up to touch the mother's cheek with his left. The mother's expression is one of quiet contemplation, while the child appears to be lost in thought. The dark background of the painting serves to heighten the sense of intimacy between the two figures.
