James Tissot, Abraham`s counsel, 1896 – 1902,
I found this painting and I know its really fake oriental style, but the look Sarai is giving Avram as he tries to convince her why she has to pretend she is his sister reminds me of the look on some of my classmates faces as we tried to understand why Avram thought that was a good idea.
love.
