Rembrandt's Technique: Illuminating Emotion Through Light and Shadow
Rembrandt's mastery of chiaroscuro is evident in this work. Light and shadow dance across the canvas, casting an ethereal glow upon the central figures.

The shadows that envelop Jason and Creusa hint at the darkness that lurks within their hearts.
Beyond the Image: Mythology and Symbolism
The painting depicts the aftermath of Medea's vengeful actions. After Jason betrays her, she murders their children and sets fire to Corinth.

The burning city in the background serves as a haunting reminder of the consequences of her actions.
