Bartolomé Esteban Murillo's "The Two Trinities" is a large-scale, oil-on-canvas painting from 1682. It depicts the Holy Trinity - God the Father, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus Christ, along with the earthly Trinity of the Holy Family. The painting combines earthly and heavenly realms, showing God the Father and the Holy Spirit above a representation of the Holy Family. This Baroque-style artwork is a striking example of Murillo's religious devotion and his ability to capture the beauty of faith. "The Two Trinities" was commissioned for a Seville convent and is now part of the National Gallery's permanent collection in London, UK.
