EDITORS COMMENTS
Francesco Fontebasso's 'Christ and the Woman of Samaria' is an exquisite 18th century antique drawing that tells a biblical story from the New Testament. The Italian artist masterfully depicts the encounter between Christ and the Samaritan woman at Jacob's Well, as described in the Gospel of John (4:5-42). In this black and white drawing, Fontebasso uses pen and brown ink, brush and brown ink, and brown wash heightened with white on prepared laid paper. The composition is set against a backdrop of the arid landscape of Samaria, with Christ and the woman standing before the well. The woman, dressed in traditional attire, is shown leaning forward, her curious expression reflecting her surprise at the revelation that she has been speaking with the Messiah. Christ, with his serene and compassionate gaze, reaches out to offer her the living water, symbolizing eternal life. The artist's skillful use of contrasting textures and tones creates a striking visual effect, with the rough, earthy terrain contrasting the smooth, ethereal quality of Christ's robe. The intricate details of the figures, the jug, and the well are rendered with remarkable precision, showcasing Fontebasso's exceptional draftsmanship. This evocative drawing is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Italy and the enduring power of biblical narratives to inspire and captivate audiences. It is an invaluable addition to any art center or gallery, providing a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the profound impact of religious art on Western culture.
