EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print of "Susanna and the Elders" created in 1567 by Jan Massys or Metsys, we are transported to a scene from biblical times. The oil on panel painting measures an impressive 162x222 cm and is currently housed at the Musees Royaux des Beaux-Arts de Belgique in Brussels, Belgium. The artwork depicts Susanna, a virtuous woman from the Book of Daniel, being observed by two elderly men known as the elders. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we can almost feel Susanna's vulnerability and innocence contrasted against the sinister intentions of these male figures. The artist skillfully captures every intricate detail - from Susanna's delicate features to her flowing garments adorned with pearls. A striking amulet hangs around her neck, symbolizing protection and purity. The elders' expressions reveal their lustful desires while they conspire together against Susanna. This painting explores themes of power dynamics, morality, and female agency within a historical context. It serves as a reminder that even in ancient times, women faced challenges where their virtue was tested by those who held authority over them. As we admire this remarkable print brought to us by www. bridgemanimages. com let us appreciate not only its artistic merit but also reflect on its timeless message about societal norms and gender roles that continue to resonate today.
