EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Antoine Coypel's masterpiece, "The Finding of Moses" painted before 1699. Measuring at an impressive 11.4x144.6 cm, this oil on canvas artwork is housed in the prestigious Allen Memorial Art Museum at Oberlin College in Ohio, USA. Coypel's painting depicts a pivotal moment from the Old Testament, where the biblical story of Moses unfolds with great drama and intrigue. The scene captures the discovery of baby Moses by Pharaoh's daughter along the banks of River Nile. With its baroque style and meticulous attention to detail, this religious artwork transports viewers back in time to witness this significant event firsthand. The landscape surrounding the river is beautifully rendered, immersing us into a world filled with wonder and mystery. Notably, Coypel skillfully portrays various characters within this composition. A female figure believed to be Pharaoh's daughter gazes upon baby Moses with compassion and awe while a maid stands beside her as they make their life-altering discovery. "The Finding of Moses" serves as a powerful testament to Christian beliefs and reinforces themes such as faith, destiny, and divine intervention. This painting continues to inspire contemplation among art enthusiasts worldwide due to its historical significance and artistic brilliance. Through Bridgeman Images' collaboration with Fine Art Finder, we have been granted access to appreciate this remarkable piece without any commercial use intentions but solely for our admiration of Coypel's genius brushwork and his ability to bring ancient stories alive
