EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century oil on canvas print, titled "Esther chosen by King Assuerus" transports viewers back in time to the biblical era. Painted by the renowned Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens, this masterpiece is housed in the Akademie der Bildenden Kunste in Vienna, Austria. The scene depicted captures a pivotal moment from the Book of Esther. Esther, portrayed as a young and beautiful woman, stands before King Assuerus (also known as Xerxes I) who has selected her as his Queen of Persia. The painting showcases Rubens' mastery of color and composition, with vibrant hues bringing life to every brushstroke. As we delve into this artwork's rich details, we are reminded of Esther's extraordinary journey – from being an orphaned Jewish girl raised by her cousin Mardochee (Mordekhai or Mordecai), to becoming one of history's most influential queens. This image beautifully encapsulates both power and vulnerability within its subjects. Rubens' Flemish style shines through in his meticulous attention to detail and skillful rendering of textures. The regal attire worn by Esther and King Assuerus exudes opulence while emphasizing their importance within Persian society. Through this painting, Luisa Ricciarini invites us to explore not only religious themes but also human emotions that transcend time. It serves as a reminder that beauty can hold immense power and change destinies – just like it did for Queen Esther all those centuries ago.
