The series depicts scenes from the life of the prophet Abraham and have both historically and contemporarily been considered one of the finest pieces of decorative artwork from the period. ==Description== The series consists of ten separate panels, each depicting stories from the life of the biblical prophet Abraham. The scenes depicted are taken from chapters 12-24 of the Book of Genesis and feature "''Departure of Abraham; the Return of Sarah; the Separation of Abraham and Lot; the Meeting of Abraham and Melchizedek; God appears to Abraham; the Circumcision of Isaac and the Expulsion of Hagar; the Sacrifice of Isaac; the Purchase of the Field of Ephron; the Oath and Departure of Eliezer; and Eliezer and Rebekah at the Well.''"〔〔 Each tapestry is surrounded by a wide, highly decorated border. The upper section of each border features a Latin summary of the story depicted; for example, in the upper section of the ''Sacrifice of Isaac'', a central cartouche, among scrolling acanthus leaves, bears the inscription ''""'' (''"Abraham, at God's command, sacrifices his only begotten son, Isaac"''). The side and lower sections are divided into a series of architectural niches, featuring allegorical figures with an accompanying Latin description. Across the whole series there are a total of 110 figures, each relating in some way to the central image of their tapestry. For example, ''"the Meeting of Abraham and Melchizedek"'', depicting the meeting between King Melchizedek and a victorious Abraham who is returning from defeating the King Chedorlaomer, features the personification of ''Fame'' and ''Honour''. Other figures include ' (''Faith''), ' (''Hope'') and ' (''Willingness of Spirit''). This border design is believed to be derived from Raphael's ''Acts of the Apostles'', which employs a similar scheme; Raphael, however, only relates his figures to the central scene in a general way and the ''The Story of Abraham Series'' is believed to first set of tapestries to include borders integral to its design. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Story of Abraham (tapestries)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
