The Sleeping Christ Child (after Guido Reni)

František Tkadlík

František Tkadlík - The Sleeping Christ Child (after Guido Reni)
Tkadlík made the drawing Sleeping Christ Child according to a painting by Guido Reni. The unnatural, „unchildlike“ position of the child in this case is an obvious allusion to the Pieta.
