Madonna in a Rosary with Saints

Executed as a woodcut, the image was printed from carved wooden blocks. Subsequent hand-coloring in a muted palette of red, ochre, green, gray, and tan adds depth, with the golden halos providing a touch of luminosity.

While specific historical details about the print's creation and ownership history are not provided, its technique and subject matter align with common practices in religious printmaking of its time. It is now part of the collection at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.

This work reflects the widespread use of woodcuts for religious imagery in the period, making sacred subjects accessible to a broad audience. The hand-coloring process, though labor-intensive, was common for enhancing such prints.

As part of the National Gallery of Art's collection, this print contributes to the understanding and appreciation of woodcut techniques and religious art from its era, offering a tangible example for study and comparison with other woodcuts in the gallery.
