Description
John the Baptist was a Jewish itinerant preacher and a major religious figure in Christianity, Islam, the Bahá'í Faith, and Mandaeism. He is called a prophet by all of these traditions, and a saint in many Christian traditions.
This bust, housed at the Louvre (R.F. 679) was originally considered to have been sculpted by the Renaissance sculptor Donatello but is now widely accepted to be the work of Desiderio da Settignano.
