About the painting
Isaac Blessing Jacob is a 1638 oil on canvas painting by the Dutch artist Govert Flinck, now in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam with the catalogue number SK-A-110.
In the museum's words
The Bible recounts how Jacob, pretending to be his brother Esau, tricked their blind father into bestowing Esau’s rightful blessing on him. The idea of imitating Esau’s hirsute arms by wearing animal-skin gloves came from their mother Rebecca, who looks on from behind the bed.
Flinck derived both this painting technique and narrative style from Rembrandt, by whom he was trained.
