Aurelio Lomi’s “The Gathering of Manna” (1576-1622) is an oil on canvas painting depicting the biblical story of the Israelites' journey through the desert. The scene is set against a dramatic landscape with a multitude of figures gathered beneath a cloudy sky. The painting is characterized by a rich color palette and a dramatic use of light and shadow. Lomi masterfully captures the awe and wonder of the miraculous event, and the painting serves as a reminder of the importance of faith and divine providence. The painting was created in the late 16th century, during a time when the Catholic Church was undergoing a period of reform and renewal, and it reflects the renewed interest in religious themes that characterized this era. "The Gathering of Manna" is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
