Retablo - The Holy Family

George E. Rhone

National Gallery of Art

The image shows three full-length figures. The central figure stands between the other two, who are turned slightly inward towards the middle. The central figure has distinctive facial features, raised hands, and simplistic hair styled as spikes, wearing dark attire. The surrounding figures also have distinct facial features, ornate hair, possibly with halos, and wear flowing garments with red and black hues. In the background, there are arches or drapery motifs hanging above the scene.
