St Joseph with the Christ Child in His Arms – by Guido Reni – Catholic Art Print – Archival Quality saint blaise this is quite uncommonThis masterpiece is an image of Saint Joseph, foster father of Jesus.

Some prefer one, others the other. Either way, there is beauty and holiness shown forth in some way. In a way, when I look at this image, I think of God the Father, with his only begotten Son. Joseph
