EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is the inner, right wing of a triptych, believed to have been created between 1510 and 1520, in the Low Countries of Europe. The painting, known as "Gathering of Manna" or "Ecclesia (on the outer)," is an intriguing piece of unknown origin, with no definitive artist attribution. The scene depicts a group of Israelites, including men, women, and children, gathered around an encampment. They are in the process of collecting manna, the miraculous bread that the Lord had provided for them during their journey in the desert, as described in the Old Testament. The manna appears as small, round, golden-brown clusters, scattered across the ground. The vibrant colors and rich details of the painting transport us back to a time of faith and devotion. The women, dressed in colorful garments, are shown carefully filling their baskets with the precious manna, while the children watch curiously. The men, with their serious expressions, carry the weight of responsibility, ensuring the sustenance of their community. This painting is a testament to the enduring power of religious art and the stories it preserves. The intricacies of the scene, from the individual expressions of the figures to the detailed textures of their clothing, demonstrate the skill and dedication of the unknown artist. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, is the proud owner of this heritage art piece, a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the 16th century. The oil on panel painting is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of Christianity and the evolution of European art.
