About this work

You see a black-and-white photo of a painted Holy Family scene. The Virgin Mary sits with baby Jesus while Joseph stands beside them. The room is simple, with wooden beams and a plain cloth on the table. This slide was made to teach art history. It shows a copy of a Northern Renaissance painting now missing. The photo is old—likely from the 1800s—kept safe for study. If you like early religious art, look up Bernard Van Orley.
