Le Christ guérissant les malades is a 1696 unspecified by Alexandre Ubeleski, a Barbizon school work, held at Louvre Museum.
This painting is a black and white image, but it's unclear what the original colors were. The scene shows a group of people, possibly in a religious setting, with some figures in the background and others in the foreground. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimensionality. One interesting detail is the way the artist has used chiaroscuro to create a sense of volume and texture in the figures. The strong contrasts between light and dark areas of the painting draw the viewer's eye and create a sense of drama.
