EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Building the City and Tower of Babel" takes us back to biblical times, illustrating a pivotal moment in the Book of Genesis. Created by Siegfried Detler Bendixen in the 19th century, this hand-coloured print is part of a series designed to aid scriptural instruction in schools and home education. The image depicts a bustling scene with men diligently constructing an impressive tower that reaches towards the heavens. The artist's attention to detail brings life to this ancient city as it thrives with activity. The architectural marvels stand tall against the backdrop of a vast landscape, showcasing both human ambition and divine intervention. According to Genesis Chapter XI, verse 1-9, this ambitious endeavor was met with divine consequences. As punishment for their arrogance and desire for greatness beyond measure, God confounded their language and scattered them across the earth. Through this powerful illustration, we are reminded of humanity's eternal pursuit for greatness while also acknowledging our limitations. It serves as a visual reminder that unity can lead to remarkable achievements but must be grounded in humility and respect for higher powers. Bendixen's skilful use of colours adds depth and vibrancy to this historical narrative. This print not only captures an important biblical event but also stands as a testament to art's ability to preserve stories throughout generations.
