About the piece

Created around 1675 by Giovanni Battista Salvi da Sassoferrato, this work exemplifies the artist's signature style of clear, bright colors and smooth, idealized forms. The scene captures a moment of domestic intimacy within the Holy Family, rendered with the technical precision and emotional sweetness characteristic of the Italian Baroque.
