17 Liss Abel Mourned by his Parents
c. 1628
Oil on canvas, 67 x 84 cm
Gallerie dell'Accademia, Venice
In the paintings of Lys there is always a vivid sense of the landscape participating in the human events it frames. In Abel mourned by his parents the fierce glow of the setting sun casts reddish reflections on the sky, against which stand out two poplar trees and Adam and Eve grieving over the lifeless body of their son in the deepening half-light on the side of the barren hill.
