"La Vierge aux colombes," translated as "The Virgin with Doves," is a symbolist painting by Swiss artist Carlos Schwabe (1866–1926). Schwabe, who was associated with the Symbolist movement, is known for his ethereal and spiritual works that often explore themes of life, death, and the divine. This particular painting is emblematic of his style, which blends mysticism with a delicate and refined aesthetic.

The artwork depicts the Virgin Mary, a central figure in Christian iconography, in a moment of serene contemplation or prayer, surrounded by doves, which are traditional symbols of peace and the Holy Spirit. The use of doves in this context may also allude to the Annunciation, where the Holy Spirit is said to have descended upon Mary in the form of a dove. Schwabe's representation of the Virgin Mary is consistent with Symbolist tendencies to infuse religious and mythological subjects with a sense of otherworldly presence and emotional depth.

"La Vierge aux colombes" is characterized by its soft color palette, intricate detailing, and the harmonious composition that creates a sense of tranquility and spiritual transcendence. The painting's precise date of creation is not well-documented, but it is reflective of Schwabe's work during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a period in which he produced several significant Symbolist works.

Schwabe's contribution to Symbolism was recognized during his lifetime, and he was involved in various artistic circles, including the Rose+Croix Salon, which was dedicated to the promotion of Symbolist art and thought. "La Vierge aux colombes" is a testament to his artistic vision and continues to be appreciated for its beauty and symbolic depth. The painting is of interest to art historians and enthusiasts of Symbolism for its representation of spiritual themes through a distinctly Symbolist lens.
