Jackpot and Francesco Bassoon Christ in the house of Mary, Martha and Lazarus This painting by Jackpot Bassoon and his son, Francesco, depicts a biblical subject as a scene from daily life. As Jesus and his disciples enter the home of Lazarus, they are welcomed by Lazarus sisters, Mary and Martha. Mary knees on the step, Martha shows the guests in, and Lazarus assists in the preparation of food at the table. In this painting colors are very important.

The color schemes of all characters clothing in the piece all represent in some way their association to Christ. Christ is wearing a pink robe with dark green mantel over it. Mary and Martha also wearing a pink robes with white shawls over it that may implied their relationship with Christ.
The cook, the young delivery boy with basket of fish, the Oman drawing water from the well, all wears pink and dark green aprons, colors that mirror Chrism’s wardrobe. This may be symbolized Grist’s position as mankind savior and his role as God’s servant. Interestingly the inside of the house opens to the outside without any distinction. People are not prepare to host Christ. Jesus enter a scene through a stone archway. This is a slight variation of location. Instead of being outside in the village, they are entering the house. 257 words American automobile industry By howsoever
