Biblical Scene, oil on canvas, dated between 1600 and 1700
Large oil painting on canvas depicting a historical-biblical or allegorical scene set in a classical architectural context.
The composition revolves around a central group of figures elegantly dressed in warm tones—ochre, orange, brown, and deep green—arranged in a theatrical and dynamic layout.
In the center, an elderly man in a draped cloak guides or supports a young woman in a graceful pose, creating the narrative focus of the scene. Around them are other characters, including a seated woman with a child in the foreground and figures in the background observing the episode, contributing to the sense of a choral narrative.
The compositional structure is emphasized by an architectural backdrop with columns and a stormy sky, rendered with broad, vibrant brushstrokes.
The pictorial surface shows small areas of color loss, consistent with the age of the work, but overall the painting retains good legibility and expressive power.
Set in an important molded wooden frame.
