Motherhood Wall Art

WALL ART

670 artworks

Mother and child form one of the oldest recurring pairings in art, carrying both an ordinary domestic subject and, in religious painting, a fixed devotional type built around the Virgin and Christ. Outside religious contexts, painters treated nursing, cradling and teaching as scenes of quiet, unposed intimacy, particularly from the nineteenth century when domestic genre painting grew popular. Attributes and setting usually mark the difference between a devotional image and a secular one, a halo or blue robe against a plain interior and contemporary dress. Sculpture and printmaking took up the same pairing alongside painting. This grouping follows the motif across both its sacred and everyday forms.
