About the Item
Oil on sheet, applied on wooden board. Central European school of the 17th-18th centuries.
In the scene a rich lady helped by handmaids is washing the feet of an elderly man under the astonished gazes of some other gentlemen.
It is not the traditional evangelical foot washing, called the anointing of Bethany, because the age of the 'man whose feet are washed does not refer back to Jesus, but the gesture performed has the same significance.
The washing of the feet is a gesture of service and humility, an act of servile submission that, following the example of Jesus at the Last Supper (but also of the Magdalene in Bethany!), has been charged with a meaning of love and respect.
The scene may refer to some unidentified historical-literary episode.

Located in brussel, BE
Willem Muys was a Dutch, 18th-century painter of history pieces, portraits and cabinet pieces. Above all, he appears to have been active as a painter of ‘wallpaper’. Until the mid-18th century, ‘wallpaper’ was not painted on paper but on coarsely woven linen. Wealthy citizens had their mansions or country estates adorned with ‘wallpaper’ with landscapes, exotic birds or chinoiseries.
Willem Muys mainly painted ‘wallpaper’, which means that few of his works have been preserved. They are hardly represented in public collections. The works of his sons, Nicolaas en Robbert, both painters, are a little less rare. The painting with Rebecca and Eliezer...
