Ameegemea kochi na kumtazama mwanamke chini.
Biblia katika sanaa · Luka
Manukato ya Magdalene (Le parfum de Madeleine)
James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York
Yesu ameegemea juu ya kochi lenye mito kwenye meza ya Farisayo akiwa na joho jeupe, amegeuka nusu kuelekea mwanamke aliyelala sakafuni miguuni pake, nywele zake ndefu zikiwa zimefunguliwa juu yake.
Wageni wengine wanaitikia: wengine wanainama mbele, mwanamke mmoja nyuma anafunika mdomo wake, na mwenyeji mzee upande wa kulia ameketi kidevu chake juu ya mkono na kutazama. Tissot alimwita mwanamke huyo Mariamu Magdalene, kufuatana na mapokeo ya zamani; Luka hamtaji jina lake.
Kutoka maandiko
- Analeta “chupa ya manukato” (Luka 7:37)
- Analowanisha miguu yake kwa machozi na kuifuta kwa nywele zake (Luka 7:38)
Ubunifu wa msanii
- Mwanamke anaitwa Mariamu Magdalene, kwa mapokeo
- Nguzo zilizozungushiwa mashada ya maua
