Painting Description
"Abraham Expelling Hagar" is a notable painting by the German artist Christian Wilhelm Ernst Dietrich (1712–1774), also known as Dietricy, who was a painter and etcher renowned for his versatility and prolific output in the Rococo period. This particular work depicts the biblical scene from the Book of Genesis, Chapter 21, where Abraham, at the behest of his wife Sarah, sends away his concubine Hagar and their son Ishmael.
Dietrich, who was a court painter in Dresden and a professor at the Dresden Academy, was known for his ability to mimic the styles of various earlier masters, which earned him the nickname "Dietricy." In "Abraham Expelling Hagar," Dietrich showcases his skill in rendering historical and religious subjects with emotional depth and fine attention to detail. The painting is a testament to his mastery of composition and his ability to convey narrative through the use of light, color, and expressive figures.
The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its portrayal of a poignant moment in biblical history, capturing the tension and sorrow of the expulsion with a dramatic intensity that is characteristic of Dietrich's historical paintings. The painting's date of creation is not precisely documented, but it is generally attributed to the mid-18th century, during the artist's mature period.
"Abraham Expelling Hagar" is held in high regard for its contribution to the understanding of 18th-century German painting and for its reflection of the religious and cultural sentiments of the time. It remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Christian Wilhelm Ernst Dietrich and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
