Description
Summary:This article explores the distinctions between the exegesis of the pericope in Luke 2:41–45 dominant in textual sources and its artistic representations. Through a range of works of art selected for their exemplarity or their inventiveness (Dürer, Tintoretto, Veronese, Ribera, Champaigne, Rembrandt and his circle, Holman Hunt, among others), the study seeks to point out the specificities of artistic exegeses of an episode from Luke, revealing the ways in which they appropriate the biblical narrative and reshape its historicity and significance.
