Gabriël Metsu. Painted c. 1664 - c. 1666.

In 1663, the plague ravaged Amsterdam, claiming one in ten lives. Around this time, Metsu painted this picture of a mother comforting her sick child. Their posture evokes a pieta: the Virgin Mary with the body of Jesus on her lap. The painting on the wall, depicting Christ on the cross, serves as a poignant reminder of that suffering.

From the collection of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Currently on display in 17th Century, Painting, Main building.
