EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite engraving, titled "The Holy Family with Infant Saint John," dates back to the 1570s and was created by the renowned Italian artist Cherubino Alberti. The image captures the tender moment between the Holy Family - the Virgin Mary, Saint Joseph, and the infant Jesus - as they welcome the young Saint John the Baptist into their midst. The serene expression on Mary's face and the protective gaze of Joseph convey a sense of love and nurturing, while the playful interaction between Jesus and John hints at the future friendship and camaraderie between the two. The presence of cherubs and putti, or angelic infants, adds an element of joy and innocence to the scene, reflecting the Christian belief in the divine nature of these children. Cherubino Alberti's mastery of the Renaissance technique is evident in the intricate details and delicate lines, which bring the figures to life and transport the viewer to another time and place. Originally from Italy, this engraving is now part of the impressive collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) in the United States. The black and white image, with its timeless beauty and enduring message, continues to captivate audiences and inspire reflection on the themes of family, faith, and the innocence of childhood.
