Description
Photograph of the painting "The Boy Jesus in the Temple" by Hoffman, [s.d.]. A young adolescent in white robes is shown at the center of a group of wizened, beared old men who appear to be appraising him. In the left foreground, one is seated with at book, two other standing next to him making quizzical gestures. To the left, a fourth man holds his hand to his chin and a scroll on his hip. Farther back a fifth man without a beard can just barely be seen. Other titles given for this painting are "Christ in the Temple" or "Jesus at Twelve". The picture file card reads "The scripture passage for this subject is Luke 2:46-47".
