Painting Description
"Christ and the Woman of Samaria" is a notable biblical-themed painting by the Italian Baroque artist Francesco Trevisani. Created in the early 18th century, this artwork depicts the well-known New Testament episode from the Gospel of John (4:4–26), where Jesus, traveling through Samaria, encounters a Samaritan woman at Jacob's well and engages in a profound theological conversation with her. This encounter is significant as it breaks with the Jewish customs of the time, which discouraged interaction between Jews and Samaritans, and between men and women in public settings.
Trevisani's interpretation of this scene is characterized by its vibrant color palette and the emotional intensity between the figures. The artist's mastery of light and shadow is evident in the way he highlights the figures of Christ and the Samaritan woman, drawing the viewer's attention to their interaction. The composition typically reflects the Baroque style's dynamism and attention to detail, with a focus on the expressions and gestures of the subjects to convey the narrative.
Born in Capodistria, now Koper, Slovenia, in 1656, Francesco Trevisani was a prominent painter of the Roman Baroque period. He received his artistic training in Venice before moving to Rome, where he became a successful painter of religious and historical subjects. His works were highly regarded for their elegance and clarity, and he enjoyed the patronage of important figures of his time, including Pope Clement XI.
"Christ and the Woman of Samaria" is considered one of Trevisani's significant religious works, showcasing his ability to blend the spiritual with the human, and to create a sense of intimacy within a grand narrative. The painting is appreciated not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the visual interpretation of a key biblical moment that emphasizes themes of compassion, redemption, and the breaking of social barriers.
The painting is part of the collection of [Museum/Gallery/Institution], where it continues to be studied and admired by art historians and the public alike. Through this work, Trevisani's legacy as a painter who could capture the essence of the Baroque spirit and the subtleties of human emotion is enduringly preserved.
