Painting Description
"Maria mit der Meerkatze" (Mary with the Monkey) is a copper engraving by the renowned German artist Albrecht Dürer, dated to around 1498. This work is part of Dürer's extensive oeuvre, which includes paintings, drawings, and printmaking, and is notable for its intricate detail and the use of symbolism, which is characteristic of his engravings.
The engraving depicts the Virgin Mary, a central figure in Christian iconography, holding the Christ Child. Beside her is a small monkey, which is a detail that has intrigued scholars and art enthusiasts alike. The presence of the monkey in this religious scene is subject to interpretation, but it is often thought to symbolize the base, instinctual nature of man, which contrasts with the purity and divinity of the Virgin and Child. This juxtaposition may serve to highlight the redemptive role of Christ in Christian theology.
Dürer's "Maria mit der Meerkatze" is an example of the Northern Renaissance, where artists were deeply interested in the detailed representation of nature and the exploration of symbolism. Dürer, in particular, was known for his masterful technique and his ability to imbue his subjects with a sense of realism and psychological depth.
The engraving is held in various collections and has been studied for its artistic merit as well as its theological implications. It continues to be a subject of interest for its representation of religious themes through the lens of Northern Renaissance humanism and for the technical skill evident in its execution.
