Mfarisayo na Mtoza Ushuru

Gustave Doré · 1866 (designs for La Sainte Bible, Tours); this printing 1873–1874
Maktaba ya Taifa ya Poland, Warsaw

Katika picha hii kutoka Biblia ya 1866 Doré anamweka msimuliaji ndani ya hadithi yake mwenyewe: kupitia mlango wazi wa hekalu Yesu na wanafunzi wake wanachungulia ndani, weupe katika mwanga wa mchana.

Ndani, katika giza kati ya nguzo kubwa sana, watu wawili wa mfano wanasali. Mfarisayo amesimama wima akiwa na shali yenye matamvua na mkufu, akitazama juu, fimbo mkononi. Mtoza ushuru amejitupa chini sakafuni, mikono imekunjuliwa, fimbo yake imeanguka kando yake. Mwanga kutoka mlangoni unawaangukia wote wawili.

Kutoka maandiko

  • “Watu wawili walipanda kwenda hekaluni kusali” (Luka 18:10)
  • “Farisayo akasimama akaomba mambo haya juu yake mwenyewe” (Luka 18:11)
  • “Yule mtoza ushuru, alisimama mbali, bila hakuweza hata kuinua macho yake mbinguni” (Luka 18:13)

Ubunifu wa msanii

  • Yesu na wanafunzi wakitazama kutoka mlangoni — katika maandiko yeye anasimulia hadithi, hayumo ndani yake
  • Mtoza ushuru ameinama hadi ardhini, ilhali maandiko yanasema alisimama na kugonga kifua chake
  • Mavazi ya fahari ya Mfarisayo, vito na shali yenye vishada
