EDITORS COMMENTS
This triptych, titled "The Story of David and Bathsheba" transports us back to the 16th century in Bologna, Italy. Painted on wood by the talented Flemish artist Herri met de Bles (Civetta), this masterpiece now resides in the Pinacoteca Nazionale. The central panel of the triptych depicts a grand banquet scene set within a lavish banqueting room. A multitude of people, both men and women from noble society, gather around long buffets adorned with sumptuous food and drinks. The atmosphere is vibrant as they engage in lively conversation and indulge in their mealtime pleasures. Amidst this opulent setting, we find ourselves drawn to two prominent figures - David and Bathsheba - characters from biblical lore. Their presence adds an intriguing layer to the painting's narrative. As our eyes wander across the panels, we witness their story unfold before us. Accompanying them is a delightful puppy who playfully roams through the scene, adding an element of charm to this already rich composition. The colors used by De Bles are vividly striking, bringing life to every detail captured on canvas. "The Story of David and Bathsheba" not only showcases De Bles' exceptional talent but also offers us a glimpse into courtly life during that era. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been intertwined with history and religion – capturing moments that transcend time itself.
