"The Virgin on the Crescent with a Crown of Stars" (Bartsch 31) is a notable engraving by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created in the late 15th or early 16th century. This work is part of Dürer's extensive corpus of engravings, which often featured religious themes and showcased his exceptional skill in the medium. The engraving depicts the Virgin Mary, a central figure in Christian iconography, in a pose that is both reverent and symbolic.

In this piece, the Virgin is represented seated upon a crescent moon, an emblem of her purity and a common motif in representations of the Immaculate Conception. She is adorned with a crown of stars, which alludes to the description of the woman in the twelfth chapter of the Book of Revelation, often interpreted as a symbol of the Virgin Mary. The intricate details of her garments and the surrounding elements highlight Dürer's mastery of line and his ability to convey texture and depth in the black-and-white medium of engraving.

The work is catalogued as number 31 in the Bartsch catalogue, a comprehensive listing of Old Master prints compiled by the 19th-century scholar Adam von Bartsch. "The Virgin on the Crescent with a Crown of Stars" is considered an important example of Dürer's religious engravings and reflects the artist's deep engagement with the spiritual and iconographic traditions of his time. It continues to be studied for its artistic merit, its place within Dürer's oeuvre, and its contribution to the visual language of the Northern Renaissance.
