Description
Spanish Colonial Retablo Depicting the Holy Family, all Standing (and with Holy Spirit above them)
oil on tin, in an elaborate wood and gold leaf frame.
The Virgin Mary (left) and St. Joseph proudly hold onto their young son's arms as they show him to the viewer. All figures stand outdoors among vegetation and wear no shoes. St. Joseph holds a branch of spikenard atop a rod in his left hand (a sign of divine favour) while Mary holds her right hand over her heart. The Holy Spirit hovers behind the trio and above Jesus near a sheer textile that serves to help frame young Jesus as the central character in the depiction.
