Description

FRENCH SCHOOL circa 1700, entourage of Louis II de BOULLOGNE. Christ and the Hemorrhoid. Provenance: Remake of the painting in the Musée des Beaux Arts de Rennes (1695). The work depicts the episode of the hemorrhoidal woman, recounted in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke: And behold, a woman who had been bleeding for twelve years came up from behind and touched the fringe of his garment. The painter skilfully depicts the precise moment when the woman, touching Jesus' cloak, is looked at by him. He turns and blesses the woman who dares not look up, while St. John, identifiable in the left foreground by his red and green garments and youthfulness, shows fear; and Jairus, the synagogue ruler who has come to seek Jesus to heal his daughter, seems to condemn her by pointing at her. The skilful rhythm of contrasting gestures and attitudes leads the eye to the center of the canvas, to these two hands, those of Jesus and those of the woman, one blessing, the other touching, two hands turned towards the earth, but one to raise and the other to lower. . Canvas 73 x 59 cm (old restorations). Expert : Cabinet TURQUIN Tél 01.47.03.48.78
