    Large painting depicting a woman saving her child, likely an episode from the Massacre of the Innocents.

    This work represents an episode from the Massacre of the Innocents (Gospel of Matthew 2:16-18), when King Herod ordered the killing of the children of Bethlehem in order to eliminate the newborn Christ. In the center of the composition, a mother clutches her naked child while a powerful hand grasps the child's arm. The scene, captured in a moment of extreme tension, intensely conveys maternal despair in the face of imminent violence.

    Generous later frame. This painting may be part of a larger work.

    Note an old relining and some minor repainting.
