About the piece
Attributed to Michel-Ange Houasse circa 1720, this painting captures the Holy Family in a moment of quiet dignity. Set against a backdrop of towering trees and a distant blue horizon, the figures are rendered in vibrant, saturated tones that create a striking visual presence characteristic of early 18th-century European art.
