Rebecca and Eliezer 1725 - 1735

"Rebecca and Eliezer" is an etching created by Louis Fabritius Dubourg between 1725 and 1735. The artwork depicts a scene from the Book of Genesis in which Rebecca, a young woman, offers water to Eliezer, a servant of Abraham, as he searches for a wife for Isaac. Dubourg's work features detailed figures and a rich background, capturing a moment of biblical narrative and the human drama within it. This etching, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a fine example of 18th-century printmaking.
