Today’s Flickr photo with the most hits: this charming statue of St Anne with the Virgin Mary. You can see it in Carcassonne - in the Basilique Saint-Nazaire.

Juan de Ancheta (or Anchieta), (Spanish; Azpeitia, Gipuzkoa, 1533 - 1588 Pamplona, Navarra), Calvary, c. 1576-1580, polychrome wood, 55 x 43,5 x 9,5 cm. Museo de Bellas Artes de Bilbao

Juan de Ancheta (or Anchieta), (Spanish; Azpeitia, Gipuzkoa, 1533 - 1588 Pamplona, Navarra), Saint John the Baptist, c.1580–92, wood, polychromed and gilded, 112.4 x 75.2 x 13.3 cm.

‘Although incorporating classical, heroic elements of Michelangelo's figural style, this work displays the continuing Spanish taste for polychromy. Dressed in animal skin like the Baptist by Martínez Montañés, here John points directly to the lamb of God, a symbol of Christ, resting on a volume of the gospel.’
