About the piece
Painted by Gerrit Dou around 1660, this evocative scene depicts the biblical story of Anna and the blind Tobit. Utilizing the dramatic chiaroscuro technique popularized by his teacher, Rembrandt, Dou creates a sense of profound stillness within the shadowed interior, highlighted by the intricate textures of fur and the soft glow of light from the hearth.
