The Holy Family 1644

Giovanni Biliverti's "The Holy Family", painted in 1644, depicts a scene of the Virgin Mary, the infant Jesus, and Saint Joseph. The composition is intimate and serene, with the figures gathered close together. Mary is depicted with a tender, maternal expression, cradling Jesus in her arms. The scene is bathed in warm, golden light, contributing to the overall sense of peace and tranquility. This artwork exemplifies the Baroque style, characterized by a dramatic use of light and shadow, emotional intensity, and an emphasis on the spiritual. "The Holy Family" is currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
