The Virgin and Child with St Anne, On a base with beveled corners, Maria and Anna stand facing each other and focus their eyes on the child. Maria, with her left leg forward and her head slightly slanted to the left, carries in both hands her son, who grasps one hand with the fruits in a basket and holds a prayer line in the other, looking up at Anna. The one with the right foot over the plinth holds the basket between both hands. Maria has a diadem on the wavy hair hanging down to the back. She wears a finely pleated shirt under the dress with sleeves. The mantle, which falls down from its right shoulder in a large bend, is picked up by the left hand. Around her waist is a belt with a round cap, probably for the underwire bag. Anna's head, on which the hair lies in braids, is covered by a folded cloth with a frowned edge, over which is laid a shoulder cloak with a lobed edge, which is pushed slightly back on the head. Under the headscarf there is a child's daughter. She also wears a dress with wide sleeves, trimmed with an embroidered cuff and a jacket with a raised collar, which is incorporated under the left arm., Meester van Joachim en Anna (follower of), c. 1500, oak (wood), h 32.7 cm × w 16.7 cm × d 11 cm
