Description:

This painting portrays the significant biblical event of the Baptism of Christ by John the Baptist. The scene is set in a wild and dramatic landscape, with a river—likely the Jordan River—rushing and swirling with powerful, turbulent water. In the center, John the Baptist, identifiable by his rugged attire and holding a staff, stands over Jesus. Jesus is depicted kneeling humbly in the water, with his head bowed. A dove, symbolizing the Holy Spirit, descends from a luminous star-like burst of light in the sky, illuminating the scene and signifying the divine approval of the act. The background consists of a craggy, mountainous terrain with sparse vegetation, which adds to the raw and spiritual intensity of the moment. The style is marked by expressive and energetic brushwork, capturing the power of both nature and the spiritual event.
