Realistic 17th-century scene in the Hospital de la Caridad, Seville. Humbled Don Miguel de Mañara transformed, wearing simple dark charity robes, kneeling with compassion and tenderly caring for the wounds of a poor, sick man on a bed. Baroque interior, dramatic chiaroscuro lighting. In the background, prominent Valdés Leal vanitas paintings (In Ictu Oculi with skeleton and symbols of death). Emotional atmosphere of repentance and redemption, high detail, realistic oil painting style. Mehr sehen
