"The Virgin and Child Attended by an Angel with a Bowl of Cherries" is a notable work by the Northern Renaissance painter Ambrosius Benson, who was active in Bruges during the first half of the 16th century. This painting is a quintessential example of Benson's devotional works, which often featured intimate portrayals of the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child, a popular subject matter in the art of this period.

The composition typically depicts the Virgin Mary in a serene and contemplative state, holding the Christ Child tenderly as they are attended by an angel. The inclusion of an angel bearing a bowl of cherries adds a layer of symbolic meaning to the painting. Cherries in Christian iconography are often associated with the fruit of paradise and can represent the sweetness of the virtues of the Virgin or the blood of Christ, alluding to the future Passion.

Ambrosius Benson's style is characterized by its fine detailing, rich color palette, and the serene expressions of his figures, which reflect the influence of his contemporaries and predecessors in the Flemish painting tradition. The precise date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, but it is generally attributed to Benson's mature period when his artistic skills were at their peak.

The painting is significant for its artistic merit and as an example of the themes and styles prevalent in the religious art of the Northern Renaissance. It is also a testament to the enduring popularity of Marian iconography during a period marked by both religious devotion and the burgeoning of humanist thought. As with many works of this era, the provenance and history of the painting may provide insights into the cultural and artistic exchanges of the time.

"The Virgin and Child Attended by an Angel with a Bowl of Cherries" remains an important piece for scholars studying the Northern Renaissance and for those interested in the evolution of religious art and its symbolism. The work is housed in a collection or museum that preserves and displays Benson's art, allowing the public and researchers to appreciate the beauty and historical significance of this Renaissance masterpiece.
