The Parable of the Tares, 1865
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by John Everett Millais that depicts a haunting scene filled with symbolism. In this dark and mysterious nocturne, the artist brings to life the biblical parable from Matthew 13:24-30. The central focus of the painting is an old man who represents the devil himself, maliciously sowing poisonous weeds among good crops. His sinister presence is intensified by the eerie night setting, as he carries out his evil deed under cover of darkness. Surrounding him are wild animals - wolves and snakes - symbolizing deceit and danger. A she-wolf lurks nearby, embodying cunningness and treachery. The serpent slithers through the tangled vegetation, representing temptation and corruption. Millais' meticulous attention to detail showcases his Pre-Raphaelite style, characterized by vibrant colors and intricate brushwork. Each element in this composition serves as a visual metaphor for moral lessons conveyed in religious teachings. This mesmerizing artwork invites viewers to reflect on themes of good versus evil, deception versus truthfulness. It reminds us that even amidst beauty and abundance, there may be hidden dangers lurking beneath the surface. Displayed at Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery since its creation in 1865, "The Parable of the Tares" continues to captivate audiences with its powerful imagery and thought-provoking narrative about human nature's capacity for both virtue and vice.
