This painting by James Tissot, a renowned artist of the late 19th century, depicts a scene from the New Testament, where a paralyzed man is lowered through a roof to be healed by Christ. Tissot's meticulous detail and realistic portrayal capture the dramatic moment of faith and hope. The artwork's focus on biblical narrative, realistic depiction of figures, and vibrant use of color, makes it a key example of Tissot's style. The painting, currently housed at the Brooklyn Museum, offers a powerful visual testament to the enduring themes of faith and healing found in the Bible.
