The Madonna of the Cherries is a 1529 oil by Quinten Metsys, a Northern Renaissance work, depicting Curtain, held at J. Paul Getty Museum.
This painting shows a woman sitting in a chair, holding a baby. She is wearing a white dress with a red skirt and has a green sash around her waist. The baby is naked and is being held close to her face. The woman is sitting in a decorative chair with gold accents, and there is a window behind her with a view of a landscape. There are also some fruits on a table in front of her. The painting is very detailed and colorful, with a lot of texture and depth. The woman's face is serene and gentle, and the baby looks happy and content. You might want to look up more paintings by the artist Quinten Metsys next.
