EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Peter Paul Rubens' masterpiece, "Hagar Leaves the House of Abraham" created around 1615. The painting, housed in the prestigious State Hermitage collection in St. Petersburg, captures a pivotal moment from the Old Testament. In this scene, we witness Hagar's banishment from Abraham's house as she departs with her faithful dog by her side. The vibrant colors and intricate details characteristic of Rubens' baroque style bring this biblical narrative to life. Hagar's red dress symbolizes both her anger and impending motherhood, while the imposing building behind them signifies the grandeur of their surroundings. As a handmaiden and servant to Sarah, Hagar's departure represents not only her personal journey but also themes of religion and social hierarchy prevalent during the 17th century. This oil on wood painting beautifully portrays Hagar's strength amidst adversity as she navigates through religious conflicts and societal expectations. Rubens masterfully captures both the physicality and emotion in his subjects, making this piece an exquisite representation of fine art from Holland during that era. Through his brushstrokes, he invites us to contemplate concepts such as rage, fury, health, pregnancy - all intertwined within this powerful biblical story. This print is a testament to Rubens' genius as well as a reminder of how art can transcend time and convey profound human experiences across centuries.
