EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Finding of Moses (engraving)" by Henry Courtney Selous, an extraordinary piece of art that depicts a significant biblical event. The engraving portrays the moment when baby Moses was discovered floating in a basket among the reeds of the River Nile. The artist's meticulous attention to detail and skillful use of light and shadow bring this ancient story to life. Selous' interpretation captures the raw emotions surrounding this miraculous discovery. As we gaze at the image, we can almost feel the tension in the air as Pharaoh's daughter discovers the abandoned child. Her compassionate expression reveals her immediate connection with Moses, while those around her are filled with awe and wonder. "The Finding of Moses" is not only a testament to Selous' artistic talent but also serves as a reminder of one of history's most profound tales. This engraving beautifully illustrates Exodus II from Our Life illustrated by Pen and Pencil, published by Religious Tract Society circa 1870. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, let us reflect on how stories like these continue to shape our understanding of faith and resilience throughout time. Bridgeman Images has once again brought us closer to our past through their remarkable collection, allowing us to appreciate both artistry and history simultaneously.
