EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a hand-coloured woodcut vignette of Noah's Ark, created in 1570 by the German School. Measuring approximately 10.6x15.3 cm, this piece is part of a private collection and features intricate details such as gold paint accents. The vignette is taken from a German Bible translated by Martin Luther, adding to its historical and religious significance. The image depicts the biblical story of Noah's Ark, illustrating the moment when Noah and his family set out on their journey to survive the great flood. The hand-colouring technique used in this print brings life to the scene, enhancing its visual impact. The use of gold paint adds an element of grandeur and symbolism to the composition. This artwork not only represents a significant event from Christian history but also serves as a testament to Germany's cultural heritage during the 16th century. It combines elements of religion, politics (depicting a political figure), and social activity within its composition. Overall, this print captures both the artistic mastery involved in woodcutting and hand-colouring techniques while immortalizing an important biblical narrative that continues to resonate with audiences today.
