Isaac Blessing Jacob (Stom)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Isaac Blessing Jacob (c. 1635) by Matthias Stom

Isaac Blessing Jacob is an oil on canvas painting by Matthias Stom, created c. 1635, whilst the artist was on Sicily.[1] It is now in the Barber Institute of Fine Arts, which purchased it in 1994.[2] The sniffing dog indicates the work can also be read as an allegory of the five senses.

The work was exhibited at a 1999-2000 exhibition, the first retrospective on the artist.[3]
