Describe the painting "John The Baptist". What is happening in the painting ?

The leaves behind the figure, and the plants and soil around his feet, are depicted with that sense of detail which is seen in the contemporary still life Basket of Fruit, while the melancholy self-absorption of the Baptist creates an atmosphere of introspection. The grape leaves stand for the grapes from which the wine of the Last Supper was pressed, while the thorns call to mind the Crown of Thorns, and the sheep is a reminder of the Sacrifice of Christ
