EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful scene from the biblical story of Exodus, specifically Exodus 9:13-35. The image portrays Moses and the plague of hail and lightning, one of the seven plagues that befell Egypt. Created by an anonymous German artist in the 15th century, this coloured woodcut is part of the Nuremberg Bible (Biblia Sacra Germanaica). The artwork showcases a dramatic storm with dark clouds looming overhead. Lightning bolts strike down from the sky, illuminating the scene with their electric energy. In this momentous event, death and destruction are unleashed upon Egypt as hailstones rain down mercilessly. The intensity of this print is palpable as it conveys both fear and awe-inspiring power. The artist skillfully captures the chaos and devastation caused by these divine acts. It serves as a reminder of God's wrath against Pharaoh for his refusal to release the Israelites from slavery. This particular print is part of The Stapleton Collection held privately, making it even more valuable for art enthusiasts and collectors alike. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical masterpiece beautifully, allowing us to appreciate its artistic merit while also reflecting on its religious significance. Overall, this striking image transports viewers back in time to witness one of history's most significant events – Moses confronting Pharaoh through devastating natural disasters – reminding us all about faith, redemption, and humanity's capacity for change.
