"Maternal Affection" is a notable painting by Georgios Jakobides, one of the most prominent Greek painters of the 19th century. Born in 1853 on the island of Lesbos, Jakobides was a key figure in the so-called Munich School, a group of Greek artists who studied and worked in Munich, Germany, and played a significant role in the modernization of Greek art.

The painting "Maternal Affection" is an exemplar of Jakobides' focus on genre scenes, often depicting everyday life with a particular emphasis on the innocence of childhood and family life. This work is celebrated for its tender representation of the mother-child bond, a theme that resonates with universal human experience and has been a subject of artistic exploration across cultures and eras.

In "Maternal Affection," Jakobides employs a soft, naturalistic style to capture an intimate moment between a mother and her child. The use of light and shadow, as well as the attention to detail in the figures' expressions and the domestic setting, reflect the influence of his academic training and his mastery of oil painting techniques. The artwork is imbued with a sense of warmth and serenity, characteristic of Jakobides' oeuvre, and showcases his ability to convey deep emotional content through his art.

While the exact date of creation for "Maternal Affection" is not well-documented, it is believed to have been painted during the late 19th or early 20th century, a period when Jakobides produced some of his most acclaimed works. The painting is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the nuances of human relationships and remains a significant piece within the canon of modern Greek art.
