San Antonio de Padua con el Niño — Historia y Análisis

San Antonio de Padua se arrodilla en el centro, su cuerpo inclinado hacia adelante mientras abraza al Niño Jesús con su brazo izquierdo. El Niño se sienta sobre un gran libro, aceptando el abrazo del santo mientras levanta su mano derecha para señalar hacia los cielos. Un grupo de querubines flota arriba, sus formas emergiendo de una nube dorada que baña la escena en una luz cálida.

Bartolomé Esteban Murillo pintó esta obra entre aproximadamente 1668 y 1669, eligiendo un tema central para la devoción católica. La pintura pertenece a un grupo de obras religiosas de la década de 1660 en las que Murillo representó repetidamente a San Antonio de Padua en momentos de visión mística.
