Agar Banishment Ismael Toad Water Bottle Banish Farmyard Scene
The Expulsion of Hagar, 1612
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Pieter Lastman that depicts a poignant biblical scene. In this beautifully detailed artwork, we witness the dramatic moment when Hagar, Ishmael's mother and Egyptian handmaiden of Sarah, is banished to the desert of Beersheba by Abraham. Lastman skillfully captures the emotions and turmoil in Hagar's face as she clutches her water bottle and wears a turban on her head. The farmyard scene behind her adds an element of realism to the composition, while the presence of a toad symbolizes her vulnerability in this harsh environment. The landscape surrounding Hagar showcases Lastman's mastery in depicting nature with its lush greenery contrasting against the barrenness of the desert where she will be exiled. The architectural elements further emphasize her isolation and abandonment. "The Expulsion of Hagar" serves as a powerful reminder of human suffering and displacement throughout history. It explores themes such as sacrifice, faithfulness, and redemption while highlighting societal inequalities. This particular print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured by Lastman over four centuries ago. It invites viewers to reflect on their own experiences with exclusion or empathy towards those who have been marginalized. Displayed at Hamburg's prestigious Hamburger Kunsthalle museum in Germany, this masterpiece continues to inspire contemplation about our shared humanity across cultures and time periods.
