Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Museo del Prado, Madrid, Spain

Description

In a very tight foreground enhanced by the studied use of lighting devices, the Virgin Mary appears sitting and holding in her lap the Christ Child , who sweetly rests his hands on her body while gazing at Saint Elizabeth. Saint Elizabeth leans over little Saint John, who is kneeling and delicately laying his clasped hands on the Christ Child . Together as a group they establish an almost sculptural cohesion, magnified by the excessive size of the depicted figures. In the background, the absent figure of Saint Joseph beholds the scene with delight from the shadows, following traditional iconographic models.

He's got a rumbly in his tumbly that only 𝖑𝖎𝖛𝖎𝖓𝖌 𝖈𝖗𝖊𝖆𝖙𝖚𝖗𝖊𝖘 can satisfy.

JOKE-OGRAPHY: John is out of his mind. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is yet another Tomics Resurrection where I've taken an ancient comic of mine and redone the art in a slightly updated style.  This one was actually Young John the Baptist's Tomics debut, so it was before I settled on a pattern for his hair or a color for his tunic.  I was, however, surprised to see that I'd drawn him without shoes in the first comic when the joke about him not knowing how to fasten sandals came in his second comic.  Past Tom must've had them both planned from the start.  What a genius.  Here's the original for reference:

St Catherine is accidentally listed twice in the first bracket! It should read St Michael v St John.

You, child, will be called prophet of the Most High,

for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way.
