Heilige Familie met de jonge Johannes de Doper 1776 - 1847

"Heilige Familie met de jonge Johannes de Doper" is an artwork by Faustino Anderloni, an Italian artist born in 1766 and who died in 1847. This artwork depicts the Holy Family, consisting of Mary, Joseph, and the infant Jesus, with John the Baptist as a child. The artwork is currently located in the Rijksmuseum. Anderloni used a classic composition, with the figures arranged in a pyramid shape, and a subdued lighting scheme that enhances the religious atmosphere. This print, measuring 622 mm in height and 465 mm in width, demonstrates the artist’s skill in capturing the tender interaction between the figures in this famous biblical scene.
