EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating red chalk drawing on thin laid paper by the renowned 16th century Italian artist Parmigianino, also known as Francesco Mazzola or Girolamo Francesco Mazzola, is a masterful depiction of a scene from the Old Testament Book of Judges. The drawing, estimated to have been created between 1524 and 1527, showcases the artist's exceptional skill in the Mannerist style, characterized by elongated figures, flowing lines, and a sense of dynamic movement. The drawing portrays the biblical story of Jael, a woman of the tribe of Heber, who deceptively kills the enemy commander Sisera. In the image, Jael is shown driving a tent peg through Sisera's temple as he sleeps, while her son holds a hammer to secure the fatal blow. The intense expression on Jael's face and the dramatic pose of her body convey the righteous determination and courage of this unlikely heroine. The use of red chalk adds depth and texture to the drawing, enhancing the sense of realism and emotion. This rare and beautiful work of art is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Italy during the 16th century and the enduring influence of Parmigianino's masterful technique. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, Christianity, or the Old Testament, and a valuable addition to any art collection or exhibit. This drawing is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and is a reminder of the timeless beauty and power of art to inspire and captivate audiences for generations to come.
