Noah and the animals entering the ark ca. 1650-55 Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione (Il Grechetto) The entry of the animals into Noahs ark was one of Castigliones favorite themes, which he painted, drew, and printed throughout his career. The story allowed the artist to depict a lively assortment of animals: pairs of deer, cows, sheep, and even guinea pigs make their way to the ark faintly delineated in the background. A lone horse in the midst of the throng dominates the composition. This etching demonstrates a controlled use of ‘Rembrandt-esque chiaroscuro, which creates dramatic effects through the contrast of light and shadow. Noah and the animals entering the ark. Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione (Il Grechetto) (Italian, Genoa 1609-1664 Mantua). ca. 1650-55. Etching. Prints
