"The Mater Dolorosa with a Donor" is a religious painting attributed to the School of Bologna, a term used to describe the artistic styles and works produced in the region of Bologna, Italy, during the late medieval and Renaissance periods. This particular work is notable for its depiction of the Mater Dolorosa, or the Sorrowful Mother, an iconographic representation of the Virgin Mary in mourning over the suffering and death of her son, Jesus Christ.

The painting is characterized by its emotive portrayal of the Virgin Mary, whose sorrowful expression captures the essence of her grief. The inclusion of a donor in the composition is indicative of a common practice during the period, where patrons who commissioned artworks would often be depicted in the piece, usually in a smaller scale, as a sign of devotion and piety. This element adds a personal dimension to the artwork, connecting the spiritual theme with the earthly realm of its patron.

Art historians have studied the stylistic elements of the painting to attribute it to the School of Bologna, which was known for its synthesis of Northern European influences and the Italian Renaissance's emphasis on humanism and naturalism. The precise brushwork, attention to detail, and the use of color and light reflect the techniques and aesthetic preferences of Bolognese artists during this era.

While the exact date of creation and the identity of the artist remain uncertain, "The Mater Dolorosa with a Donor" remains an important example of the devotional art that was central to the religious and cultural life of Bologna during the Renaissance. The painting is also significant for its contribution to the understanding of the role of patronage in the arts and the personal nature of religious devotion during this period.

As with many works from this time, the provenance and historical context of "The Mater Dolorosa with a Donor" provide insight into the broader artistic and cultural movements of the time, making it a subject of ongoing research and scholarly interest within the field of art history.
