A child in a fur-trimmed robe stands in a dim room. His right hand holds a wooden cross. A candle flickers on a small table beside him. This painting shows John the Baptist as a boy, not the usual grown man. David Teniers II often painted children this way—soft light on their faces, quiet moods. Look up this artist next: Teniers, David II.
