Archangel Raphael Book Of Tobit Capture Catch Catching Caught Gesturing Guardian Guidance Guiding Tobias
EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil painting, titled "Capture of the fish in the River Tigris by the young Tobias" transports viewers to a serene scene along the riverbank. Created in 1733 by Pierre Parrocel, this masterpiece now resides at Musee des Beaux-Arts in Marseille, France. The focal point of the artwork is a young male figure named Tobias, who stands with determination and focus as he catches a fish from the flowing waters. His youthful energy and skill are evident as he expertly wields his fishing rod. Standing beside him is Archangel Raphael, depicted as an angelic guardian guiding Tobias on his journey. The artist's attention to detail shines through in every brushstroke. The landscape surrounding them showcases lush greenery and tranquil blue waters that mirror both their physical surroundings and their spiritual connection. Parrocel's composition beautifully captures not only the act of catching a fish but also symbolizes guidance and divine intervention. Through this painting, we witness more than just a simple moment; we witness a transformative experience for Tobias. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are reminded of our own journeys - both physical and metaphorical - where guidance can come from unexpected sources. This timeless work invites us to reflect on our own paths while marveling at Parrocel's ability to capture such depth within his canvas.
