Pyramus and Thisbē are a pair of ill-fated lovers whose story forms part of Ovid's Metamorphoses. The story has since been retold by many authors.

In Ovid's Metamorphoses, Pyramus and Thisbe are two lovers in the city of Babylon who occupy connected houses, forbidden by their parents to be wed, because of their parents' rivalry. Through a crack in one of the walls, they whisper their love for each other. They arrange to meet near Ninus' tomb under a mulberry tree and state their feelings for each other. Thisbe arrives first, but upon seeing a lioness with a mouth bloody from a recent kill, she flees, leaving behind her cloak. When Pyramus arrives he is horrified at the sight of Thisbe's cloak which the lioness had torn and left traces of blood behind, as well as its tracks. Assuming that a wild beast has killed her, Pyramus kills himself, falling on his sword, a typical Babylonian way to commit suicide, and in turn splashing blood on the white mulberry leaves. Pyramus' blood stains the white mulberry fruits, turning them dark. Thisbe returns, eager to tell Pyramus what had happened to her, but she finds Pyramus' dead body under the shade of the mulberry tree. Thisbe, after a brief period of mourning, stabs herself with the same sword. In the end, the gods listen to Thisbe's lament, and forever change the color of the mulberry fruits into the stained color to honor their forbidden love. Pyramus and Thisbe proved to be faithful lovers to each other until the very end.

Lucas Gassel or Lucas van Gassel (Deurne, Netherlands, 1480–1500 – 1568 or 1569) was a Flemish Renaissance painter and draughtsman known for his landscapes. He helped further develop and modernize the landscape tradition in Flanders. He also designed prints which were published by the Antwerp publisher Hieronymus Cock.

Lucas Gassel gebruikt het landschap om het ware leven te tonen

Lucas Gassel gebruikt het landschap om het ware leven te tonen

Lucas Gassel (1488-1569), geboren en getogen in het Brabantse Helmond, was zoon van een schilder en kende palet en penseel. Als jongeling trok hij naar de Zuidelijke Nederlanden om zich aan te sluiten bij de Antwerpse School. Daar, en later in Brussel, ontwikkelt hij zich als een belangrijk en invloedrijk landschapsschilder. Gassel gebruikt het landschap niet langer als decor maar verdiept zich…

Historia del Objeto: En la Colección antes de 1913

Clasificación Razonada: En la exposición Fables du paysage flamand (Lille, 2012-2013) se pudo confrontar esta obra con otra similar del Museo de Bellas Artes de Estrasburgo. El paisaje es casi el mismo, aunque las escenas representadas difieren: la de Estrasburgo hace referencia a las Metamorfosis de Ovidio, mientras que la del Museo Lázaro representa a los Peregrinos de Emaús. Las dos tablas fueron pintadas por el mismo paisajista y presentan la misma técnica y formato. Por otro lado, el pintor relativamente mediocre que ha asumido la ejecución de las figuras en ambas obras también es el mismo (Martens y López Redondo, 2017).

Lucas Gassel (paisaje) y taller (figuras), hacia 1545-1560 (Anna Koopstra, 2020).
