Die beiden zusammengehörigen Gemälde in kräftiger Farbgebung mit Betonung der beiden Hauptfarben Rot und Blau in den Gewändern der Figuren komplementiert durch auffallende weißfarbige Partien in Inkarnat sowie in Kleidungselementen aber auch in den Schafen links im Bild des zweitgenannten Gemäldes. Der Titel des letztgenannten Bildes ist in Zweifel zu ziehen, da hier ein Jüngling und nicht die eigentlich jungendlich darzustellende Rebecca am Brunnen gezeigt wird, was bedeutet, dass hier der literarische Hintergrund noch nicht eindeutig feststeht. Die Gemälde von hoher malerischer Qualität reflektieren noch die hell dunkel Auffassung der traditionellen Malerei. (980574) (11)
Francesco de Mura,
1696 Naples - 1782 ibid, attributed
Pair of paintings
JESUS AND THE FEMALE SAMARITAN
and
REBECCA AT THE WELL
Oil on canvas.
40 x 62 cm.
It is doubtful whether the title of the latter mentioned painting is genuine, because instead of a youthful depiction of Rebecca at the well, it shows a male youth, which implies that the literary source is not conclusively clarified. The paintings, which are of high painterly quality, still reflect the chiaroscuro concept of traditional painting.
