Art sacré E7

Set against a fortified cityscape, the Virgin embraces Saint John the Baptist as he offers a lamb to the Christ Child. This work is attributed to Grégoire Guérard, a painter from the Netherlands who settled in Tournus in the early 16th century. He helped spread the influence of the Flemish Renaissance in Burgundy.
