"Jesus Speaks Near the Treasury" is a watercolor painting by the French artist James Tissot, created between 1886 and 1894. This artwork is part of Tissot's ambitious series titled "The Life of Christ," which consists of over 350 watercolors depicting various events from the New Testament. Tissot, originally known for his society paintings, experienced a religious awakening in the late 19th century, which led him to focus on biblical themes.

The painting illustrates a scene from the Gospel of Mark, where Jesus is teaching near the treasury in the Temple of Jerusalem. Tissot's work is noted for its attention to historical and cultural details, as he aimed to portray biblical events with accuracy. He traveled to the Middle East to study the landscapes, architecture, and clothing, which informed his depictions and added authenticity to his work.

In "Jesus Speaks Near the Treasury," Tissot captures the moment with a keen eye for detail. Jesus is depicted in the center, surrounded by a diverse group of listeners, including disciples, common people, and religious authorities. The composition emphasizes the contrast between Jesus' humble appearance and the grandeur of the temple setting. Tissot's use of light and shadow enhances the spiritual atmosphere of the scene, drawing attention to Jesus as the focal point.

The painting is part of the collection at the Brooklyn Museum in New York, which acquired the entire series of "The Life of Christ" in 1900. Tissot's work has been praised for its narrative quality and meticulous research, offering viewers a vivid interpretation of biblical stories. His unique approach combines artistic skill with a documentary-like precision, making his series a significant contribution to religious art of the period.
