"The Virgin on a Crescent with a Crown of Stars and a Sceptre" is an engraving by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created in the early 16th century. This work is part of Dürer's extensive body of religious art, which often depicted Christian themes and iconography with a high level of technical skill and artistic innovation. The engraving features the Virgin Mary, a central figure in Christian iconography, portrayed in a celestial context.

In this piece, Dürer presents the Virgin Mary as the Woman of the Apocalypse, an image derived from the Book of Revelation (12:1), where she is described as "a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars." The Virgin is often depicted in this manner during the Renaissance, symbolizing her purity and her role as the Queen of Heaven. Dürer's depiction is notable for its intricate detail and the use of symbolism, which was characteristic of his work.

The engraving shows the Virgin standing on a crescent moon, which is a common representation of her Immaculate Conception, indicating that she was free from original sin from the moment of her conception. The crown of stars signifies her queenship and her divine glory, while the sceptre represents her authority and power. Dürer's mastery of the engraving medium is evident in the fine lines and elaborate patterns that bring texture and depth to the image, making it a prime example of his technical prowess and his ability to convey complex theological concepts through art.

"The Virgin on a Crescent with a Crown of Stars and a Sceptre" is held in high regard for its artistic merit and its contribution to the visual language of Christian art. It remains an important work within Dürer's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its aesthetic qualities and its rich religious symbolism.
