EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 17th century depicts a pivotal moment in biblical history - the Israelites defeating the Amorite army after Joshua commanded the Sun and Moon to stand still. The artist, belonging to an unidentified European school, skillfully captures the intensity of this battle scene. Intriguingly, this print is part of a series of Bible prints published by Pierre Mariette in Paris during that era. It showcases not only the artistic talent but also reflects the religious significance attached to such depictions. The image portrays an epic clash between two armies on a battlefield in Canaan. The soldiers, representing both sides, are locked in combat as they confront each other with determination and valor. This visual narrative emphasizes their armed forces engaged in fierce fighting and conflict. What makes this artwork truly remarkable is its inclusion of celestial elements. As Joshua commands the Sun and Moon to stand still, symbolizing divine intervention, it adds a heavenly dimension to this historical event. The full moon shining brightly against outer space serves as a reminder of God's presence amidst human struggles. The intricate details within this engraving showcase meticulous craftsmanship by an unknown engraver. Hebrew inscriptions and text further enhance its authenticity while connecting it closely with Jewish religion and traditions. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into ancient biblical times while highlighting themes of faith, warfare, and divine power.
