Kutolewa kwa Yesu Hekaluni (La présentation de Jésus au Temple)

James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York

Tissot alilijenga Hekalu lake kutokana na yale aliyojifunza Yerusalemu na kutokana na michoro ya wakati wake iliyojaribu kulionyesha upya: kuta za mawe zenye milia mekundu na meupe, nguzo za kijani zenye vichwa vilivyopakwa dhahabu, na ngazi pana.

Juu, karibu na milango, mtoto analetwa kwa kuhani aliyevaa nyeupe huku wanawake wenye shela wakisubiri ngazini. Mbele, mwanamke mwenye joho lenye milia amesimama akiwa amenyoosha mikono yote miwili, na wazee wanasongamana upande wa kulia kutazama.

Wazazi wake wanampeleka Yerusalemu kumweka mbele za Bwana (Luka 2:22)
