The Expulsion of Hagar and Ishmael - A Powerful Depiction of Heartbreak and Resilience
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this oil on canvas print, Jan Victors masterfully captures the emotional turmoil of a biblical tale. "The Expulsion of Hagar and Ishmael" portrays the heart-wrenching moment when Abraham turns away his Egyptian maid, Hagar, and their son, Ishmael. Measuring 99x125 cm, this artwork showcases Victors' remarkable attention to detail. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring out the anguish in Hagar's face as she clings desperately to her young child. The viewer can almost feel the pain radiating from her eyes. Set against a backdrop that hints at an arid desert landscape, this scene evokes a sense of isolation and despair. Yet amidst the sorrow, there is also strength depicted in both mother and child. Despite being cast out into uncertainty by their own kin, they embody resilience as they face an uncertain future together. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the complexities within human relationships and the consequences that arise from decisions made in moments of desperation or fear. It invites us to reflect on themes such as exile, sacrifice, and redemption found within religious texts. Displayed proudly in a private collection but made accessible through Johnny Van Haeften Ltd. , London, this timeless masterpiece continues to captivate viewers with its poignant portrayal of love tested by adversity.
