EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Nicolas Poussin's masterpiece, "Moses saved from the water" painted in 1647. The oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 1.20 x 1.95 meters and is housed in the prestigious Musee Du Louvre in Paris, France. Poussin's painting depicts a pivotal moment from the biblical story of Moses, where he is rescued as an infant from the treacherous waters of the Nile River. The artist skillfully portrays this dramatic scene with his meticulous brushwork and attention to detail. The composition showcases a beautiful landscape with lush greenery and serene blue waters, contrasting against the turmoil of baby Moses' rescue. The young child is delicately cradled by a woman, her face filled with compassion and determination. This artwork not only highlights Poussin's mastery but also explores themes of childhood, religion, and human resilience. It serves as a visual representation of hope amidst adversity—a reminder that even during challenging times, salvation can be found. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by Jean-Louis Josse's lens, we are transported back to 17th-century France when art was used to convey powerful narratives and evoke deep emotions within its viewers. This photograph allows us to appreciate both the artistic brilliance behind Poussin's work and its enduring significance throughout history.
