Curator’s note

Virgin of the Rocks

The second of two versions of Leonardo da Vinci's Virgin of the Rocks, showing the Virgin Mary, the infant Christ, the young John the Baptist, and an angel gathered in a rocky grotto. Leonardo's sfumato technique softens every edge, lending the scene its hushed, mysterious atmosphere.
