In a moment of deceit and retribution, the widow Tamar, desperate for a child, dons a veil to hide herself and lures her wicked father-in-law, Judah, into the bedroom pretending to be a prostitute.
Judah approaches Tamar who stands waiting for him on the road. In Chagall's picture she is dressed in the veil of a prostitute, with only her tiny, alarmed eyes peeping out at the top. But her clothing is flamboyantly red-orange, the color of sexual passion. Bible reference: Genesis 38:15-18 |
