The print depicts a strange event from the legend of the life of Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153), founder of the monastery at Clairvaux: the miracle of lactation. This event was depicted several times in the middle ages, but - contrasting with the depiction of this print - almost invariably as a vision.
The anonymous artist was named Master IAM of Zwolle after the IAM monogram found on his prints.
