"The Expulsion of Hagar and Ishmael" is a significant baroque painting by the Italian artist Giovanni Francesco Barbieri, known as Guercino. This artwork, created in 1657, is a vivid representation of the biblical narrative found in the Book of Genesis, which describes the moment when Hagar and her son Ishmael are sent away by Abraham at the behest of his wife Sarah. Guercino, renowned for his dynamic compositions and emotive use of color, captures the dramatic intensity of the scene with a masterful combination of realism and theatricality.

The painting showcases Guercino's skill in rendering human emotion and the subtleties of divine interaction. It depicts Hagar in a state of despair as she and her son are cast into the wilderness, with Abraham shown in a moment of painful decision-making, torn between his duties as a husband and a father. The work is imbued with a sense of movement and urgency, characteristics that are emblematic of the Baroque period's artistic aims to engage the viewer on both an emotional and sensory level.

"The Expulsion of Hagar and Ishmael" is notable for its expressive use of light and shadow, a technique that Guercino mastered and which contributes to the overall pathos of the scene. The painting's composition, with its diagonal lines and dramatic gestures, guides the viewer's eye across the canvas, emphasizing the narrative and the emotional turmoil of the characters.

As a significant work by Guercino, "The Expulsion of Hagar and Ishmael" has been the subject of scholarly attention and is often highlighted for its contribution to the Baroque canon. The painting is a testament to Guercino's ability to convey complex biblical stories with a human touch, making them accessible and resonant to his contemporaries and to viewers today. It remains an important piece within the oeuvre of Guercino and a valuable example of seventeenth-century Italian art.
