EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "The return of Joshua and Caleb with a huge bunch of grapes from the land of Canaan" we are transported back to biblical times. Created by an unknown artist in the 16th century, this print is part of a larger chronicle by Johann Stumpff called "Den edlen strucen besten fromen". The image depicts two figures, presumably Joshua and Caleb, standing triumphantly before us. They proudly present a massive bunch of grapes that they have brought back from the Promised Land, Canaan. The size and abundance of these grapes symbolize not only wealth but also fertility and prosperity. This scene holds great religious significance as it references one of the most well-known stories from the Bible. In the book of Numbers, Joshua and Caleb were among twelve spies sent by Moses to explore Canaan. While most reported back with tales of giants and fear, Joshua and Caleb returned with faith in God's promise that He would deliver them into a land flowing with milk and honey. Beyond its religious context, this engraving also serves as an intriguing botanical study. The attention to detail in depicting the grapevine showcases both artistic skill and scientific observation. It offers insight into natural history during that time period. Overall, this print captures a momentous event filled with biblical symbolism while providing glimpses into botany and historical perspectives on wealth and prosperity.
