This bold, high-contrast linocut illustration captures the sacred moment of Jesus’ baptism in the Jordan River, emphasizing spiritual symbolism through geometric patterning and expressive line work. John the Baptist, bearded and robed in textured fabric, leans forward to anoint Jesus, who stands serene with hands clasped in prayer and a radiant halo around his head; above, a dove-representing the Holy Spirit-descends amid stylized palm fronds. The flowing water is rendered with rhythmic wave motifs, reinforcing themes of purification and divine presence.
