Botezul lui Cristos în Iordan is an unspecified by anonim italian, a Baroque work, depicting Aeneas, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This Italian painting shows Jesus standing in the Jordan River. His body glows against the dark water. John the Baptist pours water over his head. Trees lean in from both sides like they’re watching. The light hits Jesus’ skin in a soft halo. His robe stays dry where it touches the water. The painter used *sfumato*—that’s where edges blur to make things look real. This work feels close to Caravaggio’s style. Look for Caravaggio’s *Supper at Emmaus* next.
