PIETER MULIER THE YOUNGER, CALLED PIETRO CAVALIERE TEMPESTA, THE ARCHANGEL RAPHAEL LEAVING TOBIAS' FAMILY, OIL ON CANVAS

This monumental painting, flooded with golden light, is one of the rare examples in the work of Pieter Mulier the Younger (1637-1701) in which the figures take precedence over the landscape. The subject comes from the Book of Tobit, taken from the Old Testament. Tobias leaves his father's house to find a cure for the sudden blindness of his father, Tobit. In his quest, Tobias is accompanied by a stranger who eventually turns out to be the Archangel Raphael. In this painting the artist depicts the very end of the story, after Tobit has been cured. The archangel bids farewell to the family, Tobit stands before his wife, visible in the doorway on the left. Tobias is on his knees, his face turned towards the angel who is hovers in the clouds. Sarra, Tobias' young wife, does not dare look at the heavenly messenger and turns her gaze to the ground.

Scenes from the Book of Tobit were common in European painting in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, but the quest of the young biblical hero was usually preferred to this final chapter. Like Rembrandt (1606-1669) before him, it is likely that Mulier drew inspiration for his composition from the engraving by Maarten van Heemskerck (1498-1574).
