The Departure of Abraham and Isaac, 17th century
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating painting by Cornelis van Poelenburgh that depicts a significant biblical moment. In this oil illustration, we see the ruins of an ancient architecture in the Dutch countryside as a backdrop to the scene. A male figure, believed to be Abraham, stands tall with his son Isaac beside him. The father and son duo are engaged in conversation, gesturing towards their surroundings. The painting beautifully captures the spirituality and journey depicted in the Old Testament. As they prepare to depart on their expedition, both Abraham and Isaac exude determination and faith. The blue sky above symbolizes hope amidst their challenging voyage. Van Poelenburgh's attention to detail is evident as he portrays each character with precision. A female figure can also be seen nearby, possibly representing Sarah or another woman from their family. This artwork not only showcases Van Poelenburgh's mastery but also serves as a testament to the rich religious history of Christianity and Judaism. It invites viewers into a world where faith intertwines with everyday life. As we gaze upon this print from a private collection, we are transported back in time to witness this pivotal moment between father and son – an enduring image that continues to inspire contemplation on themes of sacrifice, devotion, and familial bonds found within religious narratives.
