Description:
|
|
Daret was a popular and influential painter in his time. Today he is primarily known for having trained at Tournai and for being a pupil of Robert Campin. The subject is taken from the Apocryphal Gospels of the Nativity, in particular from the Gospel of the Pseudo-Matthew. This text recounts how Joseph went in search of the two midwives to assist the Virgin but by the time they arrived she had already given birth. The midwives entered the cave where the birth had taken place. The first to enter was Zelomi who acknowledged the virginity of Mary, followed by Salome, who doubted the miracle and attempted to verify it for herself. As a punishment, her hands were paralyzed. Daret depicts the moment when Salome reaches out to touch the Christ Child, who cured her according to the apocryphal text.
