Gathering of Manna, Oil on Canvas, 17th Century
About the Item
Jews in the desert collecting the Manna. Oil on canvas, XVII century.
Oil on canvas arranged horizontally in which a figurative theme is shown with a mountainous landscape in the background. In the foreground, a series of figures have been placed creating various planes and highlighting with their postures and gestures the two figures in the center; a little further to the bottom, to the right, there are some tents and a series of "cut out" figures. Note the presence of vases and other containers, decorated and with forms of clear classicist influence.
The iconographic series of Moses (Exodus) has a large number of themes, and one of them is that of the fall and collection of Manna in the desert, which should take place before the sun melted this food that God gave to the Jews six days a week.
Stylistically, note the anatomical study of the figures with their backs in the foreground, with which a space is created prior to the "protagonist" Moses, situated raising his hand and looking up at the sky, and the variety of positions and the care of the composition, which results in a very clear work despite the number of figures present in it.

- The temptation of St Anthony. Oil on canvas. 17th c., after David Teniers IIBy David Teniers the YoungerLocated in Madrid, ESTemptations of San Antonio Abad. Oil on canvas. 17th century, following the model of David Teniers II (Antwerp, 1610-Brussels, 1690). Oil on canvas showing a figurative scene located inside a cave. To the right, you can see a cross standing, supported; to the left, a hut; and in the center of the painting appears an elderly, bearded man, leaning on a table on which there is a ceramic jug and a skull, with an open book at the foot of it. The man looks towards a woman, who points to something outside, and appears accompanied by a large frog and a series of ghostly beings or monsters dressed in brightly colored cloth and clothing. San Antonio Abad or Antonio Magno (251-356) was a Christian monk, considered the founder of the eremitical movement. He was tempted numerous times by the devil while he was in the desert, becoming a subject frequently represented in art (as can be seen in this oil painting). He is represented in a black habit because the Order of the Knights of the Hospital of San Antonio (Hospitals) was placed under his patronage, being the color of the habits of the members of this order (the tau or Egyptian cross was also the symbol chosen by they). David Teniers II or El Joven was a prominent Flemish painter and engraver, son of David Teniers El Viejo or I and father of David Teniers III, much appreciated at the time for his scenes of villagers and common people, his paintings of monkey painters, etc. . He dealt with the theme of the Temptations of Saint Anthony...Category
