1 x 52 '
Synopsis
From the earliest days of Western Painting, the Bible has been one of the main reservoirs of subject-matter for painters and sculptors. This movie about the Biblical heroines sheds light on the original treatment afforded the women of the Old Testament. They are endowed with very strong characters, both dependent and independent. Sometimes faithful to the alliance with, sometimes in open rebellion against Biblical theology, these women are headstrong. Delilah, the treacherous, for example, or the ambitious queen Jezebel to whom Catherine de Medici was often compared.
