John The Baptist? It looks like a fair skinned woman. John the Baptist lived in the wilderness, I picture a rough looking man.

My idea of what John The Baptist looked like is exactly as valid as Leonardo da Vinci’s, neither of us ever having actually seen him.

I would agree that da Vinci paints a pretty picture.
