Madonna and Child with St Peter Martyr

Madonna and Child with St Peter Martyr
by Lorenzo Lotto
1503
Wood panel, 55 x 87 cm
Museo Nazionale di Capodimonte, Naples

Squishy Jesus is looking depressed in this painting, which is totally understandable. How would you like to hang out with a guy with a knife stuck in his head and a sword in his heart?
