Description: This dissertation examines a Mosan stone relief of the Virgin and Child Enthroned housed in the Grand Curtius Museum in Liège that has not yet been the subject of detailed analysis. This study focuses on the formal and iconographic aspects of the relief. It discusses the novel image of the Virgin and relates it to developments in medieval art during the late twelfth and the early thirteenth centuries, establishing a date for the relief to that period.
Notes: Keywords: iconography, Lactans, medieval, medium, Mosan, Virgin Mary.
