Item Details
Description
Latin America, Mexico, ca. 1875 CE. A sweet and petite antique tin painting depicting the Holy Family (Mary, Joseph, and the Christ Child) finely painted in vivid hues against a golden background. Mary grasps the Child's wrist, steadying him as he toddles, and he holds a miniature cross subtly foreshadowing the Crucifixion. The Holy Mother is dressed in traditional blue and red. Her head is tilted lovingly toward him, and her expression is peaceful and serene. St. Joseph, garbed in traditional green and yellow, carries a flowering staff. Rays of light project over the Christ Child symbolizing his holiness. Size: 6-3/4"x 4-1/2".
