This particular work, created in 1530, exemplifies his mastery in engraving and his ability to convey profound religious sentiment through meticulous craftsmanship.

The engraving depicts the Virgin Mary seated at the base of a tree, tenderly holding the Christ Child. The composition is both intimate and serene, capturing a moment of maternal affection and divine grace. The tree, often symbolic of life and knowledge, serves as a natural backdrop that enhances the sacred nature of the scene. Aldegrever's attention to detail is evident in the delicate rendering of the figures' expressions and the intricate textures of their garments and surroundings.

"The Virgin and Child at the Foot of a Tree" is part of Aldegrever's broader body of work that includes religious subjects, portraits, and ornamental designs. His engravings were widely circulated and admired for their technical precision and expressive quality. This particular piece is cataloged as New Hollstein 55, indicating its place within the comprehensive catalog of Aldegrever's prints compiled by the New Hollstein German Engravings, Etchings, and Woodcuts series.
