The Israelites Gathering Manna in the Desert is a 1626 oil by Peter Paul Rubens, held at Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
In this painting, a group of people are gathered around a figure in a red robe, who appears to be holding a staff. The scene is set against a backdrop of clouds and a blue sky. The people are dressed in various attire, with some wearing robes and others in more casual clothing. A woman in a gold dress is shown holding a basket on her head, while another woman in a red dress is bending down to pick something up. A man in a white shirt is reaching up towards the sky, and a child is standing next to him. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of activity and movement. This painting is a work by the artist Peter Paul Rubens.
