The Darmstadt Madonna (also known as the Madonna of Jakob Meyer zum Hasen) is an oil painting by Hans Holbein the Younger. Completed in 1526 in Basel the work shows the Bürgermeister of Basel Jakob Meyer zum Hasen his first wife (who had died earlier) his current wife and his daughter grouped around the Madonna and infant Jesus. The meaning of the two other male figures on the left side is like the overall iconography of the image not entirely clear.
