Shallow Oval Dish with the Sacrifice of Isaac

Follower of Bernard Palissy

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a scene with mythological or religious elements. The oval-shaped object is elaborately decorated with blue and white patterns, green accents, and detailed motifs. In the center, a figure kneels with bowed head and clasped hands, while another figure stands behind holding an object. An angelic figure emerges from clouds above, interacting with the scene. The background features lush greenery, trees, and a cityscape, with a small pot emitting flames. The style is reminiscent of Bernard Palissy.
