Susanna and the Elders

William Holbrook Beard was born on April 13, 1824 in Pinesville, Ohio and began his early artistic career as a portrait painter. He traveled to Europe, Switzerland, and Italy with other famous artists and studied all aspects of his crafts. In a short while in Buffalo, New York, he repaired his talent and relocated it to become a respected portrait painter. He regularly exhibits in major US cities such as Chicago, San Francisco, Montreal, Cincinnati, Boston, but work at New York's National School of Design is the most successful. .

Susanna and his elders became Genileschi's first work in 1610 and became a smart choice between the description of her and male artists. During the exile of the Jews in the 6th century BC, the story of Du Fu and the elders of Babylon was a story. The two elder strongly appealed to Susanna, a wealthy Jewish wife. Susanna was immensely immersed in her garden, and when the elders saw them, they decided to ask her to submit sexual services. If she does not give up, they will threaten her with public humiliation. When she continued to refuse, they spread rumors that she committed affairs in the young man's garden. The act was attempted, a man named Daniel stood up and asked for a survey on the grounds that the evidence was incorrect. Finally, the elders were convicted for submitting erroneous evidence during the trial.

Thursday, March 30: The popular theme of art from the 16th century to the 17th century is the story of Susanna and its elders. Please read pages specific to this topic. This page contains the biblical sources on this topic. Please consider how the image represents the theme and answer why the topic is so popular at this time. Tuesday, April 4: Please email the proposed topic to my 3rd paper. I am planning to play a video about the art of the 17th century painter Jan Vermeer in the Netherlands. From the perspective of gender, his paintings are very interesting. Many of his pictures are concentrated in the private world of the Dutch interior. I have created a dedicated web page for some of the main examples of Vermeer's work. (Vermeer) Please select one of the images. Please write your gender reading of this picture in your diary. Also, I recommend that you browse links to supplements on this page.
