HOLBEIN, Ambrosius (1495-1519) Portrait of a Boy with Blond Hair

Tempera on wood. Kunstmuseum Basel, Basel, Switzerland.

Ambrosius Holbein, painter and book illustrator, was the elder son of Hans Holbein the Elder and the brother of Hans Holbein the Younger. He was apprenticed in his father's workshop in Augsburg. When the workshop was broken up in 1514 he went to Basle together with Hans the Younger. In Basle he received several commissions. He apparently died about 1519 before reaching maturity as an artist. - Web Gallery of Art

EYCK, Jan van The Virgin of Chancellor Rolin (detail) 1435

A small child... and the world behind him. This could be the boy that changed everything...


The globus cruciger (Latin, "cross-bearing orb") is an orb topped with a cross, a Christian symbol of authority used throughout the Middle Ages and even today on coins, iconography and royal regalia. It symbolises Christ's (the cross) dominion over the world (the orb). (Wikipedia)
