Detail & Meaning

Story
The kneeling shepherd with the lamb in his arms evokes the figure of Saint John the Baptist, precursor of Christ. His story is steeped in devotion and sacrifice: miraculously born, he lived in the desert preaching repentance and baptizing on the banks of the Jordan. He was the one who recognized and baptized Jesus, indicating him as "the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world". His veneration is widespread throughout the Christian world, celebrated as a prophet and martyr, a symbol of humility and spiritual guidance. His figure is often associated with purity and divine mission, making him a powerful symbol of faith.
