Ancient Painting On Wood “the Vision Of The Prophet Ezekiel”, Ferrarese School, Mannerism
This fascinating panel painting, part of the late Ferrarese Mannerist movement (1580/1600), presents us, with a dramatic and visionary language, a rare subject with a strong eschatological impact: "The Vision of the Prophet Ezekiel."
The prophet Ezekiel, wrapped in a cloak blown by a supernatural wind, raises his gaze toward divine light while prophesying to the dried bones, which heal, take on flesh and spirit, and rise again as an army. The "crowd of the resurrected" in the distance is rendered in a manner both fairytale and macabre, highly representative of the spiritual and visionary climate of Ferrarese painting of the late sixteenth century.
