Painting of a woman nursing an infant in a dim room while a bearded man leans over them, with a wicker cradle at right.

The Holy Family (Rembrandt, 1635)

A woman in a pink dress with a fur-lined cloak nurses an infant seated on her lap, her gaze lowered toward the child. A bearded older man leans in from behind, looking down at them beside an empty wicker cradle with white linen in a dim interior.
