EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Moses found in the bullrushes" takes us back to biblical times, specifically to the story of Moses as depicted in the Book of Exodus. Created by an anonymous French School artist during the 19th century, this colour lithograph showcases a pivotal moment in Moses' life. The image portrays a serene scene along the banks of the Nile River in ancient Egypt. Amidst lush vegetation and towering bullrushes, we witness a significant discovery. A baby boy lies nestled within a woven basket floating gently on the water's surface. This infant is none other than Moses himself, who was hidden here by his mother to protect him from Pharaoh's decree that all Hebrew male children be killed. Intriguingly, it is Pharaoh's daughter who stumbles upon this unexpected find while bathing nearby. Her compassionate gaze reveals her immediate connection with the abandoned child, and she becomes instrumental in shaping Moses' destiny. This particular artwork serves as an illustration for Histoire Sainte (Guerin, c 1890), showcasing scenes from sacred history. The talented illustrator known as "H Grobet" brings this poignant moment to life through meticulous detail and vibrant colors. As we contemplate this powerful image captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of both human vulnerability and divine intervention—a timeless tale that continues to resonate across cultures and generations.
