How to portray an angel? How to portray the Holy Spirit? Leonardo da Vinci was an artist with a great interest in symbols. All his works are full of double meanings, which fill all his works with mysticism and make it impossible to limit them to a single reading.

Thus, the mountain, in Leonardo's landscapes, will not be a purely decorative motif, but represents Christ, "Cristo est Mons Montium", Christ is the Mount of the mountains. In turn, the sea represents the world of the pagans. That is why the mountain over the sea in the background is Christ in the world, just as in the foreground, Christ's arrival in the world is represented.
