This expressive linocut-style illustration captures the moment of Jesus’ baptism in the Jordan River, emphasizing spiritual symbolism through bold contrasts and rhythmic line work. John the Baptist, with curly hair and patterned robe, stands barefoot on the riverbank while Jesus kneels in flowing water, hands clasped in prayer and haloed in light; a dove hovers above, signifying the Holy Spirit’s presence. Palm fronds frame the composition, evoking both wilderness setting and triumphal imagery.
