About the piece
Painted around 1780 by an unknown Central European master, this oil on canvas captures the biblical scene of Christ by the well. The composition balances the intimate interaction in the foreground with a sweeping landscape of rugged cliffs, towering pines, and a soft, expansive sky, reflecting the stylistic transitions of the late 18th century.
