This print shows a quiet scene of three figures in a wooded area. A woman kneels by a basket, holding a baby, while a bearded man stands beside her, his hand resting on the child’s shoulder. Above them, two cherubs float near a banner. Trees and a distant building frame the background, all rendered in soft black-and-white tones. The woman’s gentle pose and the man’s protective stance suggest a moment of calm. The cherubs add a touch of heavenly light to the scene. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this print in person.
