EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Hagar and the Angel" by Giovacchino Assereto. Painted in 1640, this oil on canvas artwork measures 125x146 cm and is currently housed at Musei di Strada Nuova in Genoa, Liguria, Italy. The painting depicts a scene from the Old Testament where Hagar, a woman of great strength and resilience, finds herself in the desert with her child after being cast out by Abraham's wife Sarah. In her moment of despair, an angel appears to offer guidance and protection. Assereto skillfully captures the emotions of both Hagar and the angel through his use of color and brushstrokes. This piece exemplifies baroque art style with its rich colors and attention to detail. The artist's ability to convey biblical stories through his work is truly remarkable. It serves as a reminder of the power of faith and divine intervention during times of struggle. "Hagar and the Angel" not only tells a story from religious texts but also speaks to universal themes such as family bonds, motherhood, escape, protection, and helping others in need. Its timeless appeal continues to resonate with viewers across different cultures and religions. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we can appreciate Assereto's artistic brilliance while immersing ourselves in this profound biblical narrative that transcends time.
