Pointed finger

[edit]

The Gypsy and the baby have the same pointed index figure. 85.250.234.79 (talk) 10:33, 16 August 2020 (UTC) Ben[reply]

No, not exactly. Our reproduction of the painting is not of a very good quality, but in fact baby Jesus's hand is resting on the edge of a basket. That basket certainly symbolizes something in itself (The story of Moses?), but the index finger is not pointing. --Edelseider (talk) 10:41, 16 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
