A Sermon in the Wilderness: The Preaching of Saint John the Baptist, Abraham Bloemaert, 1590 - 1610 - Video

The protagonist in this scene, John the Baptist, the forerunner of Christ, stands partially concealed in the shade of a group of fanciful trees. It is as if Bloemaert wanted to prove that he could paint virtually anything and everything: a mountainous landscape, leafy trees, as well as figures, either nude or clad in exotic colourful gowns and arranged in complicated poses. All of this proves him to be a master of Mannerism. Mountainous landscape with listeners at the preaching of John the Baptist. In the middle a standing man with a drum on his back, in front of which a nursing woman.
