EDITORS COMMENTS
God Creating Order from Chaos," a captivating etching on laid paper by Georg Andreas Wolfgang, dates back to the 17th century and offers a profound exploration of the Christian creation myth. This antique artwork, now a cherished addition to the collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., showcases the German artist's masterful use of black and white contrasts to bring the scene to life. The image depicts the deity in the center, poised and determined as he reaches out to impose order on the chaotic world around him. The circular composition of the print adds to the sense of movement and transformation, with the swirling lines and shapes representing the disorderly state of the universe before creation. The intricate lettering at the bottom of the print identifies the creator god as "Deus," further emphasizing the religious significance of the work. The scene is filled with a sense of tension and anticipation, as the viewer waits for the moment when God's touch will bring about the creation of order from the chaos. This etching, with its rich cultural and historical heritage, is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture the imagination and inspire reflection on the fundamental questions of existence. The National Gallery of Art is proud to exhibit this rare and beautiful work, inviting visitors to contemplate the timeless themes of creation, chaos, and order. Georg Andreas Wolfgang, a German artist of the seventeenth century, left an indelible mark on the art world with his skillful depictions of religious scenes. This print, "God Creating Order from Chaos," is a prime example of his artistic talent and his deep engagement with the spiritual and mythological traditions of his time.
