The painting is The Baptism of Christ by Aert de Gelder, a pupil of Rembrandt. He was considered one of the most talented of Rembrandts pupils. The painting was done in 1710.
Although many today believe it is evidence of UFOs close scrutiny of the original painting shows that the bright oval in the sky is really a dove surrounded by a large halo.

Thanks for all your kind responses.
I’ll see if I can enlarge it to find the dove.

Enlarging that version doesn’t reveal the dove.
Maybe we can find another version on the net.
Perhaps JoeProBono can help find the dove.
