by Veronese captures a significant moment in the biblical narrative with its exquisite artistry. This print, measuring 277.5x156 cm, is housed in The Barber Institute of Fine Arts at the University of Birmingham, thanks to The Henry Barber Trust. Originally displayed at the Church of S. Giacomo in Murano, this masterpiece showcases Veronese's exceptional talent and attention to detail. The painting depicts an encounter between two iconic figures from Christian history – Mary and Elizabeth – during their pregnancies with Jesus and John the Baptist respectively. As we gaze upon this Renaissance gem, we are transported back in time to witness this sacred meeting unfold before our eyes. Elizabeth gracefully descends a flight of steps towards Mary, her face beaming with joy as she extends her arms for an embrace.

Through his masterful use of light and shadow, he creates a sense of depth that adds further dimension to this extraordinary scene.

It serves as a reminder not only of his artistic brilliance but also invites contemplation on themes such as faith, friendship, and the power of
