St Paul Healing the Cripple at Lystra
Dujardin not only painted landscapes with Italian flair, but also large history paintings inspired by Italian
examples. Here, the Apostle Paul towers above a group of sick people. When he heals a crippled man in the
name of the Christian god, the onlookers take him to be the heathen god Mercury. Dujardin understood the
art of using figural gestures to enhance the pathos and drama of a scene.
