EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Tribe of Reuben" transports us back to biblical times. Created by an anonymous English artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection and was featured in Richard Palmer's renowned work, The Bible Atlas. The image depicts the Tribe of Reuben, one of the twelve tribes of Israel as described in scripture. With meticulous detail and vibrant colors, the engraving brings to life this ancient tribe's story within its geographical context. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the rich tapestry that intertwines religion, mythology, and history. Reuben himself holds mythological significance as a figure from ancient pagan beliefs before embracing monotheism. The intricate engravings capture our attention with their portrayal of various religious symbols and motifs associated with polytheistic practices prevalent during that era. This serves as a reminder that religious traditions evolve over time and often incorporate elements from previous belief systems. Through this print, we can explore not only the geography but also delve into the cultural complexities surrounding biblical narratives. It invites us to reflect on how different religions shape our understanding of places and peoples throughout history. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece for future generations to appreciate its artistic beauty while contemplating its historical and spiritual significance.
