The House in Nazareth is a 1630 oil on canvas painting by the Spanish artist Francisco de Zurbarán, now in the Cleveland Museum of Art.

[2] Neither figure has a halo, though some cherubs' heads appear in a burst of heavenly glory at the top left of the painting.

The white cloths around the room symbolise Christ and Mary's purity, the pigeons represent the human soul (whose resurrection Jesus' future Passion will bring) and a pot of water at Jesus' feet alludes to baptism.

On the table are open books (suggesting the prophecies of the Messiah in the Hebrew Bible) and pears (symbolising Christ's love for humanity and salvation).

The contrasting light, very typical of tenebrism, gives the painting the appearance of a theatrical performance, and refers to the work of Caravaggio.
