EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in the biblical story of Moses, as depicted by French artist Gustave Dore in 1866. The illustration showcases the dramatic scene where Moses is rescued by the daughter of the Pharaoh of Egypt. In this powerful image, we see a group of people gathered along the banks of a river, with one woman kneeling down and cradling a baby boy in her arms. This woman is none other than the Pharaoh's daughter, who discovers Moses floating amongst water plants in a basket. Her compassionate expression and gentle touch convey her immediate connection to this abandoned child. Dore's meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout this engraving. From the intricate cloud formations above to the delicate feathers adorning characters' headdresses, every element adds depth and richness to this historical tableau. The significance of this moment cannot be overstated; it marks not only Moses' salvation but also his destiny as an instrumental figure in Jewish history. As viewers gaze upon this artwork, they are transported back in time to witness an act of kindness that would shape generations to come. This particular print comes from Dore's renowned series for La Grande Bible de Tours, which solidified his reputation as one of France's most celebrated artists and illustrators during the 19th century. It serves as both a testament to Dore's artistic prowess and an enduring reminder of humanity's capacity for compassion amidst adversity.
