# Christ and the Samaritan Woman \(scene 6\) [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [DUCCIO di Buoninsegna]() - Date: 1301-1350 - Technique: Tempera on wood, 44 x 46 cm ## Commentary Christ is seated on the edge of a magnificent well made of green marble. The slender, statuesque figure of the Samaritan woman is apparent through the rippling surface of her garment. Once again urban architecture, accurate and regular in its structural lay-out, lends colour to the scene. In Christ and the Samaritan Woman the geometrical compactness of the city of Sichar and the well on which Christ is sitting are in contrast with the slight figure of the woman. ## Related artworks - [Adoration of the Magi \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Magi \(scene 3\)]() - [Agony in the Garden \(detail\)]() - [Agony in the Garden \(detail\)]() - [Agony in the Garden \(scene 6\)]() - [Announcement of Death to the Virgin \(detail\)]() - [Announcement of Death to the Virgin \(detail\)]() - [Announcement of Death to the Virgin \(panel 1\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(scene 1\)]() - [Appearance Behind Locked Doors \(detail\)]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
