The Meeting of Tamar and Judah

The artwork titled The Meeting of Tamar and Judah is a painting created in 1896. It is currently housed in the Jewish Museum. The painting depicts a scene with a woman, Tamar, sitting on a rock by the side of a path. She is dressed in richly colored clothing and jewelry, and her head is covered. She looks downcast and is touching her face with one hand. A man, Judah, stands facing her on the path. He is dressed in white robes and is leaning on a staff. He has a beard and is touching his beard with his hand as if in thought. The path is lined with trees, creating a sense of seclusion.
