About the Item

Olio su tela. La scena racconta l'episodio biblico del libro dell' Esodo in cui il piccolo Mosè, che la madre aveva affidato al fiume all'interno di una cesta per salvarlo dalla strage dei figli maschi israeliani (ordinata dal Faraone d'Egitto per impedire che il popolo israeliano diventasse troppo numeroso e potesse ribellarsi alla schiavitù), viene ritrovato da una ancella della figlia dello stesso Faraone, che decide di adottarlo e lo salva. La scena, ambientata lungo il fiume, è interamente occupata dalle figure femminili del seguito principesco, ammassate e proiettate verso l'angolo in basso a destra ove è collocato il cesto con il neonato. Anche tutti gli sguardi sono rivolti verso il bambino, nella direzione indicata dal braccio proteso della donna in primo piano a destra. Spiccano le rotondità delle forme femminili, soprattutto delle tre figure in primo piano, ove giochi di luci e ombre fanno risaltare gli incarnati che emergono dalle vesti. Restaurato e ritelato, ildipinto è presentato in cornice.
