"The Virgin and Child Seated by the Wall" (B. 40; M., Holl. 36) is a notable engraving by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created in the year 1514. This work is part of Dürer's prolific body of graphic art, which includes woodcuts, engravings, and etchings that have been celebrated for their intricate detail, technical mastery, and artistic innovation. The engraving depicts the Virgin Mary seated with the Christ Child on her lap, set against a backdrop that includes a detailed wall and a window, through which a landscape can be seen.

The composition is remarkable for its intimate portrayal of the mother and child, with the Virgin Mary shown in a moment of tender interaction with Jesus, who reaches up to touch her chin. Dürer's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to textures and materials, lends the scene a three-dimensional quality and a sense of warmth and realism. The inclusion of symbolic elements, such as the parapet and the landscape, has been the subject of scholarly interpretation, with some suggesting that these elements may hold religious or allegorical significance.

This engraving is catalogued as B. 40 in the Bartsch catalogue and Holl. 36 in the Hollstein catalogue, which are reference works used to identify prints by European artists. As one of Dürer's later works, "The Virgin and Child Seated by the Wall" reflects the artist's mature style and his ongoing exploration of religious themes through the medium of printmaking. The piece is held in high esteem by art historians and collectors and is considered an important example of Dürer's contribution to the Northern Renaissance and the development of engraving as a fine art form.

Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528) was a painter, printmaker, and theorist of the German Renaissance. Born in Nuremberg, Dürer established his reputation and influence across Europe when he was still in his twenties due to his high-quality woodcut prints. He was in communication with the major Italian artists of his time, including Raphael, Giovanni Bellini, and Leonardo da Vinci, and from 1512 was patronized by Emperor Maximilian I. Dürer's work reflects the Renaissance's interest in proportion, perspective, and the classical ideal, and his engravings, such as "The Virgin and Child Seated by the Wall," continue to be admired for their exquisite detail and innovative approach to traditional subjects.
