Jonge Christus slaat zijn ogen ten hemel 1854

This 1854 lithograph, "Jonge Christus slaat zijn ogen ten hemel" (Young Christ Raises His Eyes to Heaven) by Émile Lassalle, depicts a tender portrait of a young Christ child. With delicate brushstrokes and a soft, ethereal palette, Lassalle captures the innocence and vulnerability of the subject, emphasizing the religious theme of divine purity. The painting, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a notable example of the artist's talent for capturing the spiritual and emotional essence of his subjects.
