Madonna and Child is a 1621–1627 painting by Anthony van Dyck, now in the Galleria nazionale di Parma.

[2] The elegant gestures and dynamic movement of the elongated figure of Marie contrasts with her very human attachment to the Baby Jesus.

[3] Venetian art, particularly Titian's, was a great inspiration for Van Dyck, who admired both its creative subjects and display of technical skill.

[2] Limentani Virdis, however, believes the work was made c. 1627 based on the interpretative liberties that Van Dyck took from the art of Titian to incorporate Baroque elements and the influence of Pieter Paul Rubens.

[4] The painting entered the Galleria nazionale di Parma in 1820, after it was bought by Marie Louise from the collection of Marianna Galli Baldrighi.
