"Mary Goes into the Hill Country and Meets Elizabeth" is a painting by the Scottish artist William Brassey Hole (1846–1917), who was known for his religious works and illustrations of the Bible. The painting depicts the biblical scene of the Visitation, where Mary, the mother of Jesus, visits her cousin Elizabeth, as narrated in the Gospel of Luke (1:39–56). In this scene, Elizabeth, who is pregnant with John the Baptist, greets Mary, who has just conceived Jesus by the Holy Spirit. The moment is significant in Christian tradition as it includes Elizabeth's recognition of Mary's blessed state and the unborn John's leaping in the womb as a sign of joy.

Hole's interpretation of this event is characterized by his attention to detail and his ability to convey the emotional connection between the two women. The painting is part of Hole's larger body of work that focuses on biblical themes, showcasing his commitment to religious art and his skill in bringing these ancient stories to life. His work often reflects the influence of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, with its emphasis on vivid colors, meticulous detail, and a return to the spirituality and artistic styles of medieval times.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, William Brassey Hole's active period as an artist suggests that it would have been produced in the late 19th or early 20th century. The painting would have been one among many of Hole's contributions to religious art, which also included a series of popular illustrations for an edition of the Bible published in 1906.

As with many works of art from this period, "Mary Goes into the Hill Country and Meets Elizabeth" would have been intended not only as a piece of aesthetic beauty but also as a means of religious edification, aiming to inspire and instruct viewers through the visual portrayal of scriptural events. The painting's current location, ownership, and exhibition history are not specified, and further research would be required to provide a complete provenance and critical reception of the work.
