1683 Flock Jan Luyken Jewish Religion Shepherds Tenth Willem Goeree Donate
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 1683 print titled "Shepherds donate a tenth of their flock" by Willem Goeree and Jan Luyken, we are transported to biblical times where the principles of justice, government, and religious devotion intersect. The image depicts a group of shepherds gathered together in an act of profound generosity as they willingly offer up a tenth of their precious flocks. This powerful scene not only highlights the significance of biblical laws but also sheds light on the core values that guided ancient Jewish society. The act of donating a tenth, known as tithing, was considered an essential practice rooted in faith and communal responsibility. The intricate details captured by Jan Luyken's skilled hand draw us into the world depicted within this print. Each shepherd is portrayed with utmost care and reverence, showcasing their dedication to both their profession and religious duty. Their faces reflect solemnity mixed with contentment - a testament to the fulfillment found in giving back to one's community. As we admire this historical artwork from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection, it serves as a reminder that acts of charity have long been woven into our collective human experience. Whether through religious obligation or personal conviction, these shepherds exemplify how selflessness can shape societies for generations to come.
