A Masterpiece of History and Faith by Annibale Carracci: Saint John the Baptist Bearing Witness,1600

Among his innovations, Annibale launched the vogue for landscapes in which nature was carefully studied but transformed by the imagination into an idyllic setting for religious or mythological stories. The main figure’s large almond eyes derive from the study of ancient sculpture. Annibale’s painting depicts John heralding the arrival of Christ, to whom he points and whom he will baptize the next day. This beautifully preserved oil on copper has been part of several illustrious collections, including the Farnese family’s in Parma and the Orléans collection in Paris.The Picture: Saint John the Baptist, wearing a camel's pelt with a red cloth, kneels on some rocks in the Jordan River. Holding a reed cross in one hand, he turns to address the viewer, pointing to a figure descending a path in the distance—Christ. The picture is an illustration of the Gospel story in John (1:29): "The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world." #SaintJohntheBaptist #Bearing #Witness #AnnibaleCarracci #Italian A #Masterpiece by #Annibale #Carracci ca. #1600 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ♛ @Paintingsupclose ♛ On this self-directed virtual field trip, explore storytelling in art with artworks in the Museum's collection. ♛Subscribe to Paintingsupclose YouTube channel. ♛Tap the bell icon and stay up to date with all the latest videos!) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #TheLouvre #Paris #L #art #UffiziGallery #Florence #UG #TheMetropolitanMuseumofArt #NewYork #The Met #TheBritishMuseum #London #BM #TheVaticanMuseums #VaticanCity #VM #TheHermitageMuseum #StPetersburg #HM #The PradoMuseum #Madrid #PM #TheRijksmuseum #Amsterdam #RM #TheSmithsonianInstitution #WashingtonDC #SI #TheEgyptianMuseum #Cairo #EM #The #Guggenheim #Museum #NewYork #GM #TheAcropolisMuseum #Athens #AM #TheMuséed'Orsay Paris #MO #TheNationalPalaceMuseum #Taipei #NPM #TheArtInstituteofChicago #Chicago #AIC #ThePergamonMuseum #Berlin #PM #TheNationalGallery #London #NG #TheGettyCenter #LosAngeles #GC #TheStateTretyakovGallery #Moscow #STG #TheMuseumofModernArt #NewYork #MoMA #TheNationalGalleryofArt #Muséed'Orsay #ChryslerMuseumofArt #Paintingsupclose #Paintings #closeup #museum #artworkstory #artwork #artworksounds #paperartwork #freetvartwork #tvartwork #foryourglory #awesomegod #tvartwork #aiartwork #artworkdrawing #respecttheartwork #TheDiamondCasinoHeist #historical #paintinghistory #Shakespearean #Fantasy #Shakespear #art #artist #painting #Cleopatra #Napoleon #Napoléon #VincentvanGogh #vanGogh #Man #Nude #Woman #GreekMythology #Acis #Galatea #Polyphemus #Blue #Orange #Green #Brown #Red #Tan #Nude #Romantic
