Story

A figure emerges from a dark background, shoulders bare, hair falling in long curls, one hand holding up a cross as the gaze turns toward the viewer with a faint smile. This image of St. John the Baptist was created in 1513 and now hangs in the Louvre Museum. It was painted by Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519), an Italian artist whose work belongs to the High Renaissance.
