盲人が盲人を導く — 歴史と豆知識

六人の盲者が不安定な列を作り、土の小道を進んでいます。それぞれが杖を握り、前の人の肩を掴んでいますが、リーダーが後ろに転倒し、他の人々を引きずり込もうとしています。人物は驚くほど詳細に描かれ、顔は上を向き、目には明らかな苦悩が表れています。一方、背景には教会がそびえ立ち、牛飼いが川岸に立っています。盲人が盲人を導くは、マタイによる福音書15章14節の聖書のたとえ話から題材を取り、2人ではなく6人の盲者を描き、農民の服装ではなく立派な衣服を着せています。この絵はピーター・ブリューゲル（Pieter Bruegel the Elder）によって1568年に完成され、彼の死の1年前であり、初期ネーデルランド絵画における観察と構成の傑作と見なされています。背景の教会は聖アンナ教会と特定され、この詳細は賛否両論のカトリック解釈を引き起こしましたが、絵の意図は依然として不明です。
