Debora and Barak

Deborah and Barak from the Old Testament, in the Book of Judges. Deborah can be recognized by the palm where she's sitting under, with some books around her, symbol of her knowledge as a prophet. It may have been a study or a copy of a lost painting from Luca Giordano for the Church "della Santissima Annunziata", Naples. Oil on canvas.
