Loyalty, gleaning and alliance · Ruth of Moab in painting
From Rembrandt and Hayez to Cabanel, Millet and Scheffer, Ruth appears as a faithful stranger, gleaner and ancestor, between portrait, biblical story and rural world.
The Book of Ruth recounts the choice of a Moabite woman who lives with her mother-in-law Naomi and joins the people of Israel. Arriving in Bethlehem, Ruth gleans in the fields of Boaz, who recognizes her loyalty and welcomes her. The painters represent several dimensions of this story. Rembrandt focuses the gaze on the face and gives Ruth an inner presence. Hayez uses the character as the setting for a romantic portrait where costume, beauty and identity biblical overlap. Cabanel paints Ruth gleaning in the fields of Boaz with academic elegance attentive to the body and landscape. Millet, in The Reapers at Rest, places Ruth and Boaz in a collective work scene rural, while Scheffer favors the emotional bond between Ruth and Naomi. The "Ruth" selection notably compares Ruth - Rembrandt and Ruth gleaning in the fields of Boaz - Alexandre Cabanel. His reading favors light.
Ruth advances out of fidelity before advancing out of destiny: her story transforms gleaning, exile and welcome into the foundations of a new belonging.
