Salomon worshipping idols

Giovanni Battista Merano1673/1673

Musei Civici di Palazzo Farnese

Musei Civici di Palazzo Farnese
Piacenza , Italy

This painting – in which a narrative aspect prevails – represents Salomon worshipping the images of pagan divinities. Very interesting are the different facial expressions and the way the different characters glance at each other from two parallel rows, a structure that recalls Veronese’s paintings.
