Abstract

Este estudio parte de la sentencia extraída del evangelio de Lucas, Et velaverunt eum, en la cual es descrito el episodio dedicado a los improperios dirigidos a Cristo, aborda la construcción visual de una de las variantes tipológicas del Sacrificio de Isaac. Siguiendo lo establecido en las Sagradas Escrituras, a Cristo le ataron las manos y vendaron sus ojos para que profetizara los golpes que los sayones iban a propinarle. Las cualidades fácticas del pasaje junto con la lectura tipológica de los Primeros Padres de la Iglesia permitieron que durante el Barroco cobrara fuerza la variante tipológica que presenta a Isaac maniatado y con los ojos vendados, eje central de esta investigación, que ahonda en la continuidad y variación del tipo iconográfico en la tradición cultural convencionalizada.
This study is based on the sentence extracted from the Gospel of Luke, Et velaverunt eum, in which the episode devoted to expletives directed to Christ is described. The research deals with the visual construction of one of the typological variants of the Sacrifice of Isaac. Following what was established in the Holy Scriptures, Christ¿s hands were tied, and his eyes were blindfolded so that he would prophesy the blows that the executioners would give him. The expressive qualities of the passage and the typological reading of the First Fathers of the Church allowed the typological variant that presents Isaac tied and blindfolded to be more representative during the Baroque. This analysis¿s central axis deepens the iconographic type¿s continuity and variation in the conventionalised cultural tradition.
