Journey of Rebecca is a 1637 oil by Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione, a Early Baroque Italian work, held at Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
This painting shows a woman in a red dress and blue cloak, with a white head covering, walking in a landscape. She's surrounded by animals, including a camel, cow, sheep, and dog. In the background, there are mountains and a blue sky with white clouds. The woman is the main focus of the painting, and her red dress stands out against the more muted colors of the landscape. The animals around her seem to be watching her, and the overall mood of the painting is one of quiet contemplation. The artist who created this painting is Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione.
Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione (baptized 23 March 1609 – 5 May 1664) was an Italian Baroque painter, printmaker and draftsman, of the Genoese school.
