While more renowned for his portrait paintings, Leon Bonnat's powerful religious paintings such as "Job" are considered by many art critics to be his finest works. A naked, emaciated and destitute Job looks upwards as he is washed in a divine light signifying the end of his trials due to his unbending faith in god.
