Beschrijving
A classic Spanish Baroque painting by Bartolomé Esteban Murillo depicting the biblical encounter between Rebecca and Eliezer at a well.
This painting depicts the biblical encounter between Rebecca and Eliezer at the well, a subject drawn from the Book of Genesis. Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, a master of the Spanish Baroque, captures the moment Eliezer, the servant of Abraham, asks for water. Rebecca, shown with a calm and graceful demeanour, offers him a drink from her vessel. The composition is structured around the stone well, which acts as the physical and narrative centre of the scene.
Murillo employs a soft, atmospheric light that defines the figures and their interaction. The palette consists of earthy tones, including ochre, deep red, and muted blues, which ground the figures in their environment. The artist pays close attention to the textures of the ceramic water jars and the folds of the garments, demonstrating his ability to render everyday objects with clarity. In the background, the inclusion of camels and other figures provides context for the journey undertaken by Eliezer.
Unlike the more dramatic or tenebrist works of his contemporaries, Murillo here opts for a gentle, humanised approach to a sacred narrative. The interaction is quiet and domestic, reflecting the artist's preference for naturalism and emotional accessibility. The figures are rendered with soft edges and a fluid brushwork that creates a sense of warmth. This work is characteristic of Murillo's mid-career output, where he balanced religious themes with a focus on the daily lives of his subjects. The painting remains a fine example of the Sevillian school of painting, showcasing the artist's skill in balancing narrative clarity with painterly technique.

Artist Biography
Bartolomé Esteban Murillo
Murillo fell from a scaffold in Cadiz and died a few months later. He was sixty-four, working on a fresco at the church of the Capuchines, and the fall ended both the painting and his life. His burial in the Church of Santa Cruz in Seville did not survive either: the French demolished the church during the Peninsular War, and his remains were lost.
He was born in Seville in late 1617, the youngest of fourteen children. His father was a barber surgeon. Both parents died before he was eleven, and he was raised by an older sister and her husband, also a barber. He studied in the workshop of Juan del Castillo, his uncle and godfather, and absorbed the realism of Zurbaran and Ribera. In 1645 he received his first major commission: eleven canvases for the convent of San Francisco in Seville. The success was decisive.
Seville became his entire world. He rarely left. In 1660 he co-founded and became first president of the city's Academy of Painting. His religious paintings, particularly his Immaculate Conceptions, were reproduced and imitated across the Catholic world for the next two centuries. He also painted contemporary street life: flower girls, beggars, street urchins, recorded with an affectionate realism that constitutes a documentary record of seventeenth-century Andalusia.
For two hundred years after his death he was considered one of the greatest painters who ever lived, ranked alongside Raphael and Titian. Then opinion turned. By the late nineteenth century his religious canvases were dismissed as sentimental and treacly, and he was nearly written out of art history altogether. The reassessment continues; the sentimentality charge has not entirely lifted.
