Delightful Folk Painting of Christ with Infants
Ref: 6383
A delightful folk painting on paper attached to rustic linen would have been used to decorate a country home at festive times as often the subject matter of these distinctive works was religious but ‘happy’ here Christ as an energetic figure of cosmic love welcomes mothers to bring their infants to him for blessing, an illustration of Luke 18:16.
