Visitation is a c.1445 oil on panel painting of the Visitation by Rogier van der Weyden, now in the Museum der bildenden Künste in Leipzig.
[1] Mary's posture is used to symbolize her status as the Mother of Christ.
The view behind Mary is panoramic, suggesting that she has walked a long distance.
Mary's posture is straight, in comparison to Elizabeth, who has her knee slightly bent towards the ground.
Near the door of the mansion, Zachary, the husband of Elizabeth, plays with a dog.
