This etching by Sébastien Bourdon (1616-1671) depicts the Holy Family with Saint John the Baptist as a child, who offers a bird to the infant Jesus. Bourdon, a French painter and printmaker, was a versatile artist who worked in various styles, including history painting, portraiture, and genre scenes. He spent time in Italy, where he was influenced by the art of the Italian Renaissance and Baroque periods. His work often shows a concern for classical composition and a refined sense of draughtsmanship. The composition is arranged with the figures grouped closely together, creating a sense of intimacy. Saint Joseph stands to the left, observing the interaction between the children. Mary, wearing a turban-like headdress, looks on with a serene expression. The etching technique allows for fine lines and subtle gradations of tone, which Bourdon uses to create a sense of depth and texture. The landscape in the background is suggested with delicate lines, adding to the overall sense of harmony and balance.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
