EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Mordecai refusing to bow before Haman 485 BC" takes us back in time to a significant moment in history. Created by the talented artist Ernest Normand (1857-1923), this print showcases his mastery of detail and storytelling. The scene depicted is from the Book of Esther in the Bible, where Mordecai, a Jewish nobleman, defiantly refuses to bow down before Haman, an influential Persian official. The year is 485 BC, and tensions run high as Mordecai's refusal challenges not only Haman's authority but also his deep-seated hatred for the Jewish people. Normand skillfully captures the intensity of this confrontation through meticulous attention to costumes and weaponry. Soldiers stand at attention behind Haman as he demands homage from all who pass by. However, Mordecai stands tall with unwavering determination, symbolizing his unyielding faith and commitment to his beliefs. This historical procession unfolds before our eyes as we witness a pivotal moment that would shape events yet to come. The engraving technique used adds depth and texture to every stroke of Normand's hand. Preserved within a private collection since its creation circa 1920s, this lithograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a reminder of the power of conviction against oppression throughout history.
