The Holy Family
Opaque watercolor with gold on paper, most likely dating to the Mughal Court early in the 17th century. The Mughal Empire stretched across a vast expanse of territory and governed people of many differents religions and creeds. The painting here is executed in the classical European style and depicts the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. Yet the actors here, particularly the Virgin Mary, are portrayed in contemporary dress and style. This painting can be found on the Cleveland Museum of Art website, but is not on display. The size is not mentioned online. The painting was a gift of Mrs. Henry White Cannon and its image is in the Public Domain.
