The Washing of the Feet (Le lavement des pieds) - James Tissot - Oil Painting
About This Piece
Upgrade your walls with The Washing of the Feet (Le lavement des pieds) - James Tissot - Oil Painting. Every fine art reproduction is painted entirely by hand, so the surface carries the depth and variation of an original oil painting rather than the flatness of a digital canvas print.
Composition & Subject
1886-1894
Opaque watercolor over graphite on gray wove paper
Brooklyn Museum, United States.
After the disciples dine together, the company passes into another chamber, the artist notes, where Jesus washes the feet of his followers, an act of selflessness and humility that presages his later sacrifice for the sins of mankind.
Although Peter, sitting at center with his hands at his head, protests his unworthiness, Jesus insists on the physical and spiritual necessity of the cleansing act. Hinting at his knowledge of his future betrayal by Judas, by saying that not all of his apostles are "clean," Jesus nevertheless includes Judas in this rite. In Tissot's image, Judas sits at the extreme left, his body uncomfortably twisted as he awaits his turn.
Every hand painted oil painting in this fine art series is finished on artist-grade canvas and checked against the original before it leaves the studio.
Materials & Craftsmanship
Each canvas is painted entirely by hand with professional oil paints on artist-grade cotton canvas. No printing, giclée, or digital imaging is used at any stage, so the surface keeps the slight relief and color variation of real brushwork.
