Painting Description
"Cristo e la Samaritana" (Christ and the Samaritan Woman) is an oil painting by the Italian Baroque artist Stefano Magnasco, not to be confused with his more famous contemporary, Alessandro Magnasco. Stefano Magnasco, active in the late 17th and early 18th centuries, is known for his religious and historical paintings. This particular work depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of John (4:4–26), where Jesus, while traveling through Samaria, encounters a Samaritan woman at Jacob's Well and engages in a profound theological conversation with her.
The painting is characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, a hallmark of the Baroque style, which serves to emphasize the spiritual and emotional intensity of the moment. The figures of Christ and the Samaritan woman are rendered with a naturalism that reflects the influence of Caravaggio, whose work was pivotal in shaping the Baroque aesthetic. Magnasco's composition focuses on the interaction between the two central figures, using their gestures and expressions to convey the narrative and its underlying themes of grace, redemption, and the breaking of social barriers.
"Cristo e la Samaritana" is significant for its artistic merit and as an example of the religious art of the period, which sought to inspire devotion and reflection in the viewer.
