Description
Saint John the Baptist in the Desert, Spanish School, 17th century Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 86 x 60 cm; framed 100 x 74 cm. A religious scene depicting a young Saint John the Baptist seated in a sombre landscape, accompanied by the symbolic lamb and holding a baptismal shell. The red cloak creates a striking colour contrast against the dark, vegetated background, whilst the directional lighting emphasises the saint’s physique and introspective gesture. The work reflects 17th-century Spanish Baroque models, characterised by a strong devotional quality, restrained naturalism and an expressive use of chiaroscuro.
