The Arrest of Christ

Artist: Matthias Stom (Dutch, 1600 – after 1652)

Date: c. 1630-1632

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

Description

Christ and Judas are dramatically lit by the torch while the other figures emerge from the darkness only where the light catches them. This work was likely painted in Rome, where Stom was inspired by the example of Caravaggio and his followers. Christ's robes would have suggested historic costume to contemporary viewers; in contrast, the men arresting him wear something closer to modern dress. Caravaggio championed anachronism - the violation of historical accuracy - as a means of giving biblical subjects urgency by connecting them to modern life. Significantly, Stom has applied this interpretive freedom only to the secondary figures; Christ's appearance and clothing are traditional. The image is a compound of new and old - Christ's life played out in modern times. Frame: carved and gilded wood. Italy, 17th century.

The Arrest of Jesus | Matthew 26:47-56

Judas arrived with a large crowd armed with swords and clubs and sent by the chief priests and the elders. They were to arrest the man Judas kissed. Judas went straight to Jesus and said, “Peace be with you, Teacher,” and kissed him.

Jesper: Kaz! Wylan’s been hurt! *carrying an unconscious, very beat up Wylan*

Kaz: What?

Inej: What?!

Jesper: You have to do something!

Nina: Put him on the table!

Matthias: *shoving everything off a table*

Kaz: Who did this?

Jesper: *panicking*

Kaz: Jesper?

Jesper: WHAT?!

Kaz: Who…did this?

Jesper: Some Dime Lion who caught him looking around a garden.

Kaz: What did he look like?

Jesper: Um…someone said…big guy, scar over his left eye, missing a pinky anchor tattoo on his right forearm. I would’ve gone after the bastard but…. *looks back at Wylan* He was just looking at plants Kaz!

Kaz: Inej. Matthias.

Inej: Fully breathing or barely?

Kaz: Enough that he can pay.

Nina: I’d like to be there as well.

Kaz: You have my word you will be. I want him kept alive long enough to give me a good excuse.

Matthias Stom

Young Man Reading by Candle Light, 1628-32 Óleo sobre lienzo, 58,5 x 73,5 cm Tenebrismo

Se cree que Matthias Stom fue alumno de Gerrit van Honthorst en Utrecht, antes de ir a Roma en 1628. Pintó principalmente piezas de género y temas bíblicos. Sus obras se diferencian de las de Honthorst en que los rostros de sus personajes están más elaborados y tienen rasgos más anchos y más surcos. Sus pinturas utilizan una paleta más cálida, dominada por los rojos y amarillos. Durante su estancia en Roma, Stom pintó varias piezas de género como la presente obra.
