Bring the beauty of Irish Modernism into your home with this museum-quality reproduction of The Virgin and Child (1936) by Mainie Jellett (1897–1944) — one of Ireland’s most visionary and spiritually inspired artists.
A luminous fusion of Cubist geometry and sacred symbolism, this composition transforms a traditional Christian subject into a modern icon. The interlocking arcs and planes of rose, turquoise, and ochre radiate calm energy, depicting the eternal bond between mother and child through rhythm, colour, and light. Jellett’s distinctive abstraction captures both tenderness and transcendence — a union of faith and form that defined her artistic philosophy.
Trained under William Orpen in Dublin and later with André Lhote and Albert Gleizes in Paris, Jellett became one of the first artists to exhibit abstract work in Ireland. The Virgin and Child represents the culmination of her exploration of spiritual abstraction, combining European Cubism with a uniquely Irish sense of harmony and reverence. Exhibited internationally, it remains a landmark of Irish modern art.
