"Virgin with Christ Child Holding Apple" is a Baroque-era painting by Italian artist Massimo Stanzione, created in the 17th century. The artwork depicts the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child, who is grasping an apple. This motif is rich in Christian symbolism, with the apple often representing the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge, alluding to the original sin and Christ's role in redemption. Stanzione's portrayal of the Virgin and Child is noted for its tender intimacy and the gentle, maternal affection displayed by Mary.

Massimo Stanzione (1585–1656) was a prominent painter during the Baroque period, particularly known for his religious works and his contribution to the development of Neapolitan art. His style is characterized by its soft color palette, graceful figures, and the emotional depth of his subjects. "Virgin with Christ Child Holding Apple" exemplifies Stanzione's skill in capturing the divine and human aspects of its figures, blending naturalism with spiritual overtones.

The painting is significant for its artistic merit and as an example of the Counter-Reformation's impact on art, where religious images were used to inspire faith and devotion among the Catholic faithful. Stanzione's work reflects the era's artistic trends, influenced by the likes of Caravaggio and Annibale Carracci, while also contributing to the distinct Neapolitan school of painting.

"Virgin with Christ Child Holding Apple" is appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and its place within the broader context of Baroque art. It remains an important piece for scholars studying the period, the region's art, and Stanzione's oeuvre. The painting is held in high regard for its historical and cultural significance, as well as its ability to convey complex theological concepts through visual means.
