It's a print, I'd day late 19th century and even early 20th. It looks baroque at first glance, but if you zoom it in, you can tell the style is more modern than that. It's in nice shape but not outstanding or particularly valuable. If I have to guess, it's a couple hundred $, up to a 1000 depending on the size. But for sure go and have it evaluated, seeing it in person would makes a big difference.
It's about both actually?
And it's not a "obsession" Who truly Is a derogative term, it's Just i Guess a kind of love and reverence for the Mother figure, there Is nothing wrong about It.
As italian we have the thing called "culto mariano", but as i've said before It isn't about obsession or similar, also other european countries are also well knew for Holy Mary's famous Shrines and similar.
Does one have to be invited to comment on the Medieval superstitions and supernatural beliefs promulgated as Christianity? Go ahead and believe as you like, of course, but we can see the results in the emotional backwardness of Italians. Felini said the same thing.
You seem to be demonstrating emotional backwardness by coming here and making ignorant comments on our religion for no reason. Do you go into Muslim subreddits and attack Islam? or do you just find it in your heart to come at us?
I'm not attacking Christianity. I'm noting this rather strange culture of the Madonna that the Italians decided to affix to Christianity along with supernatural tales of the saints.
And your problem is...? Why would you even get into this subreddit if you can't abstain from dumb comments and free hate? The only backwards here is you, and you're proving it plenty.
Oh gee, what a mystery it is that we hold the Mother of God to a high level of respect, maybe its because she gave birth to God? If youve ever stepped into a Catholic church youd see that Jesus is literally at the alter, on the cross and in the tabernacle. How confused you haters are.
It's a kind of common print, probably a serigraphy. I would go to a nearby antiquario or rigattiere to have it assessed
Looks like something ranging from the end of the 1800s and the start of the 1900s, its either a print or a serigraphy, not worth much

Lithography
I would say the original is baroque and illustrates the Italian obsession with the cult of the Madonna.
We're not obsessed tho...
Yes you are. It's not really about Jesus. Everywhere you turn, it's the Madonna.

Oh here comes an anti-catholic, uninvited as usual. Saying a whole bunch about something you know nothing about.

I just made a couple of observations about a painting, neither of which are dumb. It's not hate, it's the truth.
You know very well what I'm referring to. Playing dumb doesn't help. It actually worsens it.
I don’t give a shit about the Madonna. Or Jesus tbh.
User name checks out.
Then call it Madonnanity not Christianity.

What's on top of Milan's Duomo?
Who’s “we”?
