El Santo Nino de Atocha: santo de retablo is a 1700 unspecified by Unknown, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This small, faded painting shows a child-like figure dressed in striped robes and a tall hat. The figure holds a staff with a star on top and a small object in one hand, while the other hand rests on a chest. Behind them, two tiny palm trees stand on either side. The background is plain, and the colors are mostly brown and gray, with some red and white details. The painting’s title, *"El Santo Niño de Atocha,"* hints it might depict a religious figure. The rough, worn edges suggest it’s old, possibly used in a church setting. Check out Baroque for more art like this.
