Heilige Familie met Johannes de Doper 1747 - 1773

"Heilige Familie met Johannes de Doper" (Holy Family with John the Baptist) is an engraving by Charles Phillips, a British artist active in the 18th century. The artwork depicts a traditional Christian scene, showcasing the Virgin Mary, her son Jesus, and the young John the Baptist. It is a beautifully rendered composition with a focus on the tender interaction between the figures. This engraving, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures the devotional fervor of the period with its detailed figures and naturalistic portrayal of light and shadow.
