About the piece
This 1632 oil painting on copper depicts the Infant Christ walking with the instruments of the Passion, including a wooden cross and spear. Attributed to the Spanish or South American school, the work is notable for its dramatic chiaroscuro, where the child's golden, radiant halo shines against a deep, dark background, highlighting the fine detail of his robes and the symbolic objects he carries.
