EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Nicolas Poussin's masterpiece, "Moses and the Brazen Serpent". Painted on canvas with oil, this iconic artwork measures 92x128 cm and is currently housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. Captured by Peter Willi, a renowned photographer specializing in fine art imagery, this print beautifully captures every detail of Poussin's work. The painting depicts a significant biblical event from the Old Testament. Moses is shown seated on an ornate throne while holding a staff with a serpent wrapped around it. The Israelites surround him, their faces filled with awe as they witness the miraculous scene unfold before them. This religious masterpiece symbolizes faith and redemption. According to the Bible story, God sent venomous snakes to punish the Israelites for their disobedience. However, upon Moses' plea for mercy, God instructed him to create a bronze serpent and place it on top of a pole. Those who looked at it were miraculously healed from snake bites. Poussin's attention to detail brings life to each character depicted in this painting - from Moses' regal attire to Aaron's presence beside him. The serpents slithering through the crowd add an element of danger amidst divine intervention. As you gaze upon this remarkable print, let yourself be transported back in time to witness one of history's most extraordinary miracles captured through artistry and skillful brushstrokes.
