St. Augustine and the Child on the Seashore

Master of the Nuremberg Passion

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of a man wearing a bishop's hat and robe standing on the shore, holding a staff in his right hand and reaching out to a naked child standing in the water. The child has a halo around their head and is reaching out to the bishop. There are flowers and grass at their feet. A town with buildings and a church is in the background. A river or body of water separates the bishop and child from the town. The image is detailed and appears to be an old etching or engraving.
