Evidently the pop-up baby Jesus above was a later addition to this painting by El Greco. WTF? Check out the Prado’s site for more info on the painting. [BTW, the writing on the outer pages of the book is apparently El Greco’s signature]
Pop-up Jesus can also be seen in other paintings of Saint Anthony of Padua, each time increasingly larger, like the right wing of an altarpiece by Gerard David or a charming image by Murillo.
