About the piece
Created in 1799 by José Campeche, Puerto Rico’s most renowned colonial painter, this oil on canvas depicts the Holy Family in a moment of quiet devotion. The work exemplifies the artist’s mastery of light and color, blending European Rococo sensibilities with the devotional requirements of late 18th-century religious art.
