An etherial photoshoot in Malibu sees the Grammy winner posing with both babies, celebrating their four-week milestone in one of the world’s most famous families. It was posted to her Instagram account late Thursday night.
“Sir Carter and Rumi 1 month today,” the singer wrote in a caption. In flowing pastel robes, Bey looks every part the Madonna and child (or children in this case).
Twitter users capitalized on the Madonna comparison, posting pictures of the Beyhive Queen next to pictures of Botticelli, Alex Kizmich and Jan Van Eyck depictions of Madonna and child. She’s also been compared to Botticelli’s “The Birth of Venus.”
