🖼 Virgin of the Vine Trellis, -
Panel

Tender vine leaves frame the Virgin and Child in delicate woodcut, their figures emerging from intricate foliage in Northern Renaissance style. Baldung Grien merges sacred imagery with nature symbolism, transforming the trellis into a metaphor for divine protection and fertility in German religious art.
