1661 Angel Devil Front Leiden Lutheran Church Middle Parable Pharisee Presented Publican Temple Three Scenes Barent Fabritius Oil Paint
EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a profound moment in the Pharisee Publican Parable, presented through three powerful scenes. In the middle of the canvas, we witness the humbled figure of the Pharisee as he kneels before the altar, his face filled with contrition and repentance. This central image symbolizes his realization of his own shortcomings and his desire for redemption. On the left side of the painting, we see a stark contrast to this scene of humility. The haughty Pharisee is depicted leaving the temple accompanied by a devilish figure, representing arrogance and self-righteousness. This portrayal serves as a cautionary reminder of how pride can blind us from recognizing our faults. In contrast, on the right side of the canvas, we witness an entirely different outcome. The publican departs from the temple accompanied by an angelic presence, signifying divine grace and forgiveness bestowed upon him due to his genuine humility and recognition of sinfulness. Painted in 1661 by Barent Fabritius for a Lutheran church in Leiden, this artwork is part of a series that explores various parables. Through its masterful use of oil paint on canvas measuring 95 cm in height and 293 cm in width with a depth of 6 cm, it invites viewers to reflect upon their own attitudes towards righteousness and judgment.
