Saint Joseph Charpentier

The French text for this painting read:[i]Georges de La Tour
Vic-sur-Seille, 1953 - Luneville, 1652Saint Joseph Charpentier
Vers 1642Saint Joseph, patron des charpentiers, travaille un poutre devantl'Enfant Jésus qui semble déjà y voir le bois de sa croix.[/i]Which seems to make it a picture of Jesus and his old man building Jesus' cross - a speculation I had thought was reserved for science fiction.Weird.
