Description: Jacob Fight With Angel Antique Painting Oil On Linen Nineteenth Century Biblical The description of this item has been automatically translated. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. Oil painting on canvas dating back to the first half of the 19th century.The painting depicts the biblical episode described in Genesis 32, 24-33 or the fight that occurred between Jacob and the angel who blessed him.Jacob, having sent his servants, children and wives to meet Esau to bring him gifts, remains alone and at this juncture meets a man with whom he begins a fight that lasts all night until dawn, when Jacob discovers that his opponent is a angel sent by God to bless him.The episode is widely represented in art and its interpretation is very varied, probably the fight with the angel is a metaphorical encounter, Jacob, left alone, relies on prayer and in his meditation he mentally clashes with God who had him put to the test.In the painting the landscape and the dawn in the background predominate over the fighting scene which however immediately captures the observer thanks to the composition created by the artist which places the two fighting subjects exactly in the center of the golden section of the painting.Unfortunately, the canvas has undergone numerous restoration interventions which are clearly visible as can be seen from the photos.Measures:65.5 x 40 cmAlso check out the other items I have for sale :-)FOR ANY QUESTIONS DO NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT US.018090240540150 0914rcs Jacob, having sent his servants, children and wives to meet Esau to bring him gifts, remains alone and at this juncture meets a man with whom he begins a fight that lasts all night until dawn, when Jacob discovers that his opponent is a angel sent by God to bless him.
