但丁：“世界上有一種美麗的聲音，那便是母親的呼喚。”
A mother’s voice is the most beautiful sound in the world. ”── Dante Alighieri, (1265-1321).
以母與子作為題材遍佈世界，母愛是生物延續的基礎,是最具本能情感的自然因素,是人類社會乃至自然界生物的生命傳承的一種天性。在藝術史中，“母與子”題材是一對經典的藝術形象，伴隨著人類社會發展和需求，結合社會背景，思想文化、藝術家人生經歷等方面，“母與子”在不同時代的審美影響下都在發生變化，所傳達作用也是各不相同。
較多中世紀作品，描繪母與子的畫面最多，而且跟基督教關係密切，聖母與聖嬰是最受歡迎的宗教題材之一。文藝復興時代的宗教繪畫表現得很人間化，常把神聖家庭描繪成平民的模樣。如: 米開朗基羅 - 聖母與聖嬰像，達文西 - 聖母、聖嬰和聖安娜，而藝術家 畢卡索、雷諾瓦、米勒....等，也曾結合自身經歷描繪出母親與孩子間深情的互動。
對於非洲部落，母與子象徵孕育的形式不僅是常採用的題材也是非洲藝術的代表。在非洲部落社會裡，女性所扮演家計重任、傳宗接代，製備日常衣食並主持家務，等孩子出來後，由母親哺乳、餵食，對生育的渴望和對母性敬仰是非洲社會普遍流行的習俗。
非洲木雕的母與子裡，緊繫母親，透露出幼年時對母親的需要，孩子對母親的依賴。原始藝術透過純粹的造型，最真實的感覺，表現出母親愛的光輝，直及人心最深處的感動 。
雕刻家對女性形象的造型非常大膽，微翹的臀部、豐滿的乳房、提起的腹部等，都瀰漫著一種原始淳樸的自然之美。 它代表的是生命，是非洲人對“生命力”崇拜的形象的反映和體現，
因此“母與子”成為非洲雕像中非常經典的題材，是一個傳承，孕育的象徵，可以感受到嚴謹的表達期待家族壯大，顯赫的傳承。造型生動而富於變化，流淌著母子間不同的微妙動作，是現實生活的寫照，又具精神力量的支撐，部落作品可以單純的從一些細微去理解它的含意，整體看來同時具有相當的美感。
