Hagar and Ishmael in the Desert | Emanuel Krescenc Liška | 1883

Hagar kneels beside Ishmael on bare ground, her clasped hands and upturned face set against a darkening sky. The boy lies motionless across the foreground, his pale drapery catching the last light, while a discarded water vessel rests nearby. Liška gives the biblical scene an austere setting: a low sun and an immense expanse of cloud concentrate attention on the mother’s appeal and the child’s vulnerability.
