  • CONCEPCIÓN RODRIGO YANES asked

    En el cuadro de Tintoretto de "Las Virgenes prudentes y las insensatas" ¿podrían informarme sobre los textos que se encuentras en las dos filacterias?
    Es para un trabajo de investigación. Gracias

  • Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen answered

    Dear Rodrigo, the story of the wise and the foolish virgins is a parabel from the New Testament (Matteüs 25:1-13). I hope this is helpful, kind regards, Els
