EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century oil painting by Carlo Maratta, titled "Rebecca and Eliezer at the well" depicts a significant biblical scene from the Old Testament. The artwork, measuring approximately 179 x 120 cm, is housed in the Palazzo Corsini's Gallerie Nazionali Barberini Corsini in Rome, Italy. The composition showcases Rebecca and Eliezer engaged in an enchanting encounter near a well. The lush landscape surrounding them adds depth to the painting while emphasizing their presence within a bustling cityscape. Maratta's masterful use of color and light brings out the intricate details of each character and object portrayed. In this particular scene, Eliezer presents Rebecca with a jewel box as part of his marriage proposal on behalf of Isaac. Water gushes from an amphora nearby, symbolizing purity and life-giving qualities. This momentous event holds great significance within Christian and Catholic traditions. Maratta's work exemplifies baroque art style through its attention to detail, dramatic lighting effects, and emotional intensity. The artist skillfully captures not only the physical attributes but also the spiritual essence of these biblical figures. Stefano Baldini beautifully captures this timeless masterpiece through his photography skills. His photograph allows viewers to appreciate every brushstroke while preserving its historical context for future generations to admire this remarkable piece of artistry.
