Christ Returning from the Temple with His Parents

Rembrandt van Rijn

National Gallery of Art

The image features three figures standing in a landscape setting. On the left, a woman is slightly bending forward, holding the hand of a young boy in the center. She is wearing a headscarf and a long robe. The young boy looks towards the man on his other side. The man on the right is wearing a brimmed hat and a long coat, holding a walking stick. A small dog is at their feet. The background shows hills and rock formations.
