The Holy Family with the Three Hares

Albrecht Dürer, ca. 1497/1498

Three human figures are shown in the image. Two adult-sized figures stand side by side, with one holding a small infant. The woman on the left is seated, tilting slightly forward. She wears a veil covering her head and shoulders, and a long robe. The man next to her has a beard and holds a pouch. The infant has curly hair and is in a lively pose. Two angels fly above, holding a crown. Various plants, grasses, and rabbits are depicted around them. A landscape with a village, hills, and trees is shown in the background.
