EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 16th century painting by Cornelis van Cleve, titled "The Holy Family with the Infant St. John," showcases a tender moment in the lives of the Biblical figures, Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, as they are joined by the young John the Baptist. Van Cleve masterfully captures the essence of the New Testament story, with Mary cradling her infant son, Jesus, as Joseph looks on with a protective and loving gaze. The inclusion of John the Baptist, who would later baptize Jesus in the River Jordan, adds an intriguing layer of foreshadowing to the scene. Cornelis van Cleve, also known as Cornelis van der Beke or Cornelis Sotte Cleve, was a renowned Netherlandish painter of the Northern Renaissance period. His works are characterized by their rich colors and meticulous attention to detail. This painting, with its warm hues and delicate brushstrokes, is a testament to van Cleve's artistic skill and his deep understanding of the biblical narrative. The painting is currently on display at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, where it is a cherished part of the museum's extensive collection of European art. The Holy Family with the Infant St. John is a captivating work of art that invites viewers to contemplate the humanity and divinity of Jesus, and the love and devotion of his family.
