"Abraham Repudiating Hagar", Miniature, Ater Van Rijn, Rembrandt, 18th Century

About the Item

"Abraham repudiating Hagar". Framed miniature. Ater VAN RIJN, Rembrandt (Leinden, 1606-Amsterdam, 1669), 18th century. It shows a story of Genesis. The story tells that Sara accepted that Abraham obtained offspring thanks to an Egyptian slave, Agar, a union from which Ishmael was born. However, when Sarah had Isaac through a miracle, she convinced Abraham to expel Sara and her son. The anecdotal detail of presenting Sarah smiling, the dog, Sara's grief, etc. it can also be appreciated in the painting of the same theme of the flamenco PieterJozef Verhaghen (1728-1811), in which Abraham also appears with red cloak and turban, but the composition and environment differ; in the painting of Jan Victors from circa 1635 (Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest), with Sara and her son smiling; etc. However, some drawings by Rembrandt (Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art of Cornell University, two from Rembrandt's hand, are preserved, this institution has another, probably eighteenth-century and anonymous but very similar, and there is another from the artist's hand in the Metropolitan Museum) made in 1637 those of the master who follow, almost point by point, the present work except, logically, in the colorful and in the background, where the architectures of the baroque master are replaced by a landscape. Size: 15 x18. 5 / 28 x 30 cms. 5 cm (Depth).
