"The Childhood of the Virgin" is a notable oil painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Francisco de Zurbarán, created around 1660. This work is emblematic of Zurbarán's religious-themed oeuvre and his mastery in capturing the spiritual and ascetic character of his subjects. The painting depicts a young Virgin Mary, a common subject in Christian art, which Zurbarán approached with his characteristic blend of realism and mysticism.

In "The Childhood of the Virgin," Zurbarán presents the young Mary in a moment of quiet contemplation or prayer, a theme that resonates with the Counter-Reformation ideals of piety and devotion. The artist's use of chiaroscuro, with stark contrasts between light and shadow, serves to heighten the spiritual atmosphere of the scene and draw attention to the figure of Mary. The painting's composition, with its attention to the textures of fabrics and the play of light on surfaces, reflects Zurbarán's interest in the tactile qualities of the material world, even within the context of a religious narrative.

The work is a testament to Zurbarán's skill in rendering the human figure with a sense of dignity and grace, qualities that have led him to be regarded as one of the great painters of the Spanish Golden Age. "The Childhood of the Virgin" is often cited as an example of Zurbarán's ability to convey complex theological concepts through simple, yet powerful visual language.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of the collection of the Museo de Bellas Artes de Sevilla in Seville, Spain. It continues to be studied and admired for its artistic merit and as a representation of the religious and cultural milieu of 17th-century Spain.
