EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Abraham Bloemaert's masterpiece, "Moses Striking the Rock" painted in 1596. The scene depicts a pivotal moment from the biblical story of Moses leading the children of Israel out of Egypt towards the promised land. In this stunning oil on canvas artwork, we witness the Israelites marching out of Egypt, adorned in provocative attire and burdened with earthenware pots. In the background stands Moses, who has just struck a rock with his staff. As if responding to his miraculous act, water gushes forth from the rock, quenching their thirst and providing relief in their arduous journey. The painting beautifully showcases elements of Baroque style with its dramatic lighting and intricate details. It transports us to that ancient desert landscape where faith and miracles intertwine. Through this image, we are reminded of the power of belief and divine intervention during times of hardship. It symbolizes hope amidst adversity as well as God's provision for His people. Displayed at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, this Dutch Golden Age masterpiece continues to captivate viewers with its religious significance and artistic brilliance. Bridgeman Images flawlessly captures every brushstroke through this high-quality print that allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate Bloemaert's mastery even from afar.
