Christ and the Virgin in the House at Nazareth

Francisco de Zurbarán

Cleveland Museum of Art

Christ on the left with short curly brown hair, wearing a blue robe, sits on a wooden bench, holding a crown of thorns in both hands. The Virgin on the right with long dark hair, wearing a pink robe and green undergarment, sits on a chair, resting her right elbow on her knee. The background shows a wooden table with books and objects on it. The floor features a brown bowl, a basket with fabric, and two white doves. A vase with flowers and an architectural element are on the right side.
