The Holy Family at Table

Jacques Callot

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts three figures. The person on the left is seated at a table, shown from the side, with the upper part of their body visible. They are adorned with a halo around the head, hair tied back with a ribbon, and wearing a long-sleeved garment with a waist apron. The central figure stands, facing the seated individual, with a halo and partially obscured by a hooded robe. To the right, another figure is seated, with hands on the table and a large halo around their head. This figure's hair is shorter and slightly tousled, wearing a collared garment. The scene includes a round table topped with a lit candle, a goblet, a loaf of bread, and a plate. The background features a texture, possibly a patterned or weave-like design, enclosed within a decorative circular border.
