"The Flood: A Testament of Faith and Redemption" In this captivating collection of artworks, we are transported back in time to witness the awe-inspiring story of "The Flood. " From Noah's sacrifice on leaving the ark to his unwavering faith in building it, these images depict a tale that has captivated hearts for centuries. One image, a coloured engraving titled "Noah's Sacrifice, " portrays the moment when Noah steps onto dry land after enduring the wrath of nature. His gratitude towards God is palpable as he offers a sacrifice, acknowledging divine guidance throughout their perilous journey. Another piece, a colour lithograph named "The Deluge, " showcases the sheer magnitude and chaos unleashed by the floodwaters. It serves as a reminder of humanity's fallibility and our need for redemption. A detail from one of the Bible Windows reveals an intimate scene where Noah welcomes back a dove carrying an olive branch—a symbol of hope and renewal. This tender moment encapsulates mankind's resilience amidst devastation. Through chromolithographs like "Noah in the Ark" and "Noah's Ark, " we witness both preparation and salvation. The former depicts Noah diligently constructing the vessel under divine instruction while surrounded by skeptical onlookers. The latter shows animals peacefully coexisting within its sturdy walls—an extraordinary testament to unity during adversity. Engravings such as "The Building Of The Ark" and "The Flood" evoke emotions ranging from determination to despair. They convey how Noah tirelessly dedicated himself to fulfilling God's commandments while facing skepticism from those around him. Meanwhile, scenes like "Sortie De L'Arche" (Exit from the Ark) emphasize rebirth as humans step onto renewed earth with newfound purpose. "L'arche de Noé" (Noah's Ark), an enchanting engraving, invites us into this miraculous vessel—its grandeur contrasting against turbulent waters outside. Here lies safety amid chaos—a refuge for both man and beast.
