This painting " Madonna with child" was executed in the early 19th century by an anonyme represantative of famous Nazarene school.

The epithet Nazarene was adopted by a group of early 19th century German Romantic painters who aimed to revive honesty and spirituality in Christian art. The name Nazarene came from a term of derision used against them for their affectation of a biblical manner of clothing and hair style.
