EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 17th century print depicts Saint Joseph tenderly holding the infant Christ in an oval composition, reminiscent of the masterful work of Guido Reni. In this scene, Saint Joseph, with a serene expression, raises his hands in a gesture of adoration and protection towards his son, Jesus. The delicate etching captures the essence of the New Testament story, with the infant Christ looking up at his father with an air of innocence and trust. The posture and facial expressions of both figures convey a deep sense of love and connection between the biblical characters. This beautiful work of art, created anonymously during the seventeenth century, is a testament to the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the Christian faith. The oval shape of the composition adds to the intimacy and focus on the figures, drawing the viewer's attention to the sacred scene. This print is a valuable addition to any art collection, museum or gallery, and is a reminder of the enduring influence of Renaissance art on the visual arts.
