EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Moses Kills the Cruel Task-Master" we are transported back in time to witness a powerful moment from biblical history. The artist, John Lawson, skillfully captures the intensity and significance of this event through his vivid color lithograph. The scene depicts Moses, one of the most revered figures in religious lore, taking decisive action against a cruel task-master. With determination etched on his face and muscles tensed with strength, Moses stands as a symbol of justice and liberation for his people. This image is part of Mrs L Haskell's renowned book "Stories from the Bible" published by Blackie around 1930. It serves as an illustration that brings to life the gripping narrative found within its pages. Through Lawson's artistry, we can almost hear the cries for freedom echoing across generations. The use of color in this lithograph adds depth and emotion to an already dramatic scene. The contrast between light and dark intensifies our focus on Moses' heroic act while emphasizing the oppressive nature of slavery he seeks to overcome. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we cannot help but be reminded of humanity's eternal struggle for justice and liberation. This timeless depiction invites us to reflect on our own capacity for courage and compassion in fighting against injustice.
