About this work

Ary Scheffer's Jacob and Rachel, painted in 1857 and held by the Dordrechts Museum, shows a bare-chested man in a dark robe leaning in to kiss the forehead of a young woman wearing a pale veil and grey-lilac dress. She holds a shepherd's crook and gazes off to the side while his hand rests over hers at her waist, with sheep and a pale evening landscape behind them.
