This drawing by Salomon de Bray, a prominent Dutch artist of the 17th century, depicts a scene from the biblical story of Rebekah giving water to Eliezer, Abraham's servant. The composition captures the moment of encounter, with Rebekah offering water from a pitcher to Eliezer kneeling at the well. The detailed background, featuring camels and a ruined structure, adds depth to the scene. While lacking color, the subtle use of gray washes and pen work brings the figures and setting to life, showcasing de Bray’s masterful skill in draftsmanship.
