It was John the Baptist's son, the older one that she's pointing to, the initiator.

and her son with Yeshua is sitting in her lap, the younger child.

So what happened historically is John the Baptist was commissioned by a Roman Catholic church to do this painting.

He presented the painting, and they basically said, F you, pal, do it again.

So he did.

And when you look at that second version of,

The hair is gone.

The colors are gone.

That woman that's sitting there has wings of an angel.

Now she's become an archangel.

So there's no woman anymore.

And they put halos on the kids.

And then John the Baptist is holding a staff, right?

Because, damn it, that is not the children.

That is Jesus and John the Baptist.

Because Leonardo da Vinci knew the truth.

Because during his time, he was the grandmaster of that tradition.

And he was preserving that truth.

Now, there are some other paintings that I could tell you about that tell a similar tale, but actually go into much more detail.

There's another painting that was done by Botticelli, I think.
