EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Enak before Gemorrhe (Gomorrah)" transports viewers to a world of biblical poetry and German art nouveau. Created by Ephraim Moses Lilien, known as the father of Zionist iconography, this artwork is part of his renowned book Judah illustrated in 1900. Lilien's unique style, influenced by Jugendstil, beautifully captures the essence of this biblical tale. The image depicts Enak standing before the ancient city of Gomorrah, showcasing Lilien's exceptional talent for storytelling through visual art. The book Judah was a collaboration between Lilien and Borries Freiherr von Munchausen, an unexpected partnership between a Jewish artist and Christian poet. This fusion resulted in a remarkable blend of illustration and poetry that resonates with audiences even today. Through Lilien's skillful brushwork, we are transported back in time to witness Enak's encounter with Gomorrah—a moment frozen in poetic imagery. The composition exudes both beauty and mystery while capturing the essence of biblical narratives. As we explore this enchanting piece further, it becomes evident why Ephraim Moses Lilien holds such significance within both artistic and historical contexts. His ability to merge different artistic styles with religious themes showcases his mastery as an illustrator. This print invites us to delve deeper into Lilien's world—where art meets spirituality—and appreciate his contribution to both Zionist iconography and German art nouveau movements.
