Madonna of the Rose Bower

Madonna of the Rose Bower (or Virgin in the Rose Bower) is a panel painting by the German artist Stefan Lochner, usually dated c. 1440–1442. However, the specific date of the piece has been the subject of debate by numerous art historians throughout the years. The painting is one of the most famous of its kind from Cologne. It has been mass reproduced and printed multiple times due to its popularity. It is now located in the Wallraf-Richartz Museum in Cologne.

It is one of three Virgin of Humility style paintings that Lochner created. The painting is an example of Gothic style Cologne painting from the Renaissance, looking similar to medieval paintings because of the Gothic nature. It is also heavily iconographic, with many details containing religious symbolism. It is usually seen as one of his finest and most closely detailed works.
