Julius Hübner is in the straight line of the Nazarene painters, who in 1809 founded the Lukasbund (Brotherhood of Saint Luke) with the aim of revitalising art through the Christian faith and under the influence of German Romanticism.
They went to live in Rome to rediscover the roots and the authentic fervour of Christian art. They were inspired by their authority figure, Raphael, and by 16th century Italy in general. The two lovers represented here are the protagonists of the Jerusalem Deliverance written by Le Tasse in 1581. Automatically translated by DeepL. To see the original version, click here.
