Description
Willem Muys (1720–1763) – Rebecca and Eliezer at the Fountain
Oil on panel. Dimensions: 95 × 116.5 cm. This biblical painting, inspired by the Old Testament (Genesis 24), depicts the encounter between Rebekah and Eliezer at the well, a key episode in Rebekah’s selection as Isaac’s wife. The scene is rendered in a Baroque-Classical style, with a balanced composition and careful attention to the figures and their gestures, emphasising the narrative and symbolic nature of the episode. Willem Muys, an 18th-century Dutch painter, was particularly renowned for his historical and decorative compositions, especially his paintings intended for large interiors, which explains the compositional strength and scenic clarity of this work. This lot is held in an international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipping: no import duties apply within the EU. An export licence from the country of origin may be required.
