De aanbidding der herders
medium: panel @en
type: painting @en
description: Mary is holding the sleeping Jesus in her arms, showing him to the shepherds. The painter has zoomed in, giving us the feeling that we are in the front row, in the best spot to see the child. And the reflections in the shiny brass jug. The painting has elements of the style of Caravaggio, who was known for his strong lighting effects and raw naturalism. However, the Flemish artist Jordaens never went to Italy. He was introduced to Caravaggism through other painters, such as Rubens. @en

description: Maria houdt de slapende Jezus in haar armen en toont hem aan de herders. De schilder zoomde flink in, waardoor het lijkt of we als kijkers vooraan staan – de beste plek om het kind te zien én de reflecties in de glimmende, koperen kan. Het schilderij toont stijlkenmerken van het werk van Caravaggio, bekend om zijn sterke lichteffecten en rauwe realisme. De Vlaming Jordaens is echter nooit in Italië geweest. Hij maakte kennis met het caravaggisme via andere kunstenaars, zoals Rubens.
