EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Seigneur frappa tous les premiers-nes de l Egypte" depicts a scene from the biblical story of the Ten Plagues. Created by an anonymous French artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a dramatic moment when God strikes down all the firstborn sons of Egypt. The image is part of a series commissioned for La Bible Populaire, Ancien Testament, published by Hachette in 1864. It has been digitally cleaned to enhance its clarity and detail, allowing viewers to appreciate the intricate lines and textures of the engraving. In this particular scene, we witness the devastating consequences of God's wrath upon Egypt. The somber atmosphere is heightened as grieving parents mourn over their lifeless children. The composition skillfully captures both sorrow and fear through delicate shading and expressive gestures. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the power and consequences that accompany divine intervention. This event serves as a pivotal moment in biblical history, leading to Pharaoh's eventual release of the Israelites from slavery. As we observe this historical depiction, it prompts us to reflect on themes such as faith, justice, and human suffering found within religious texts like Psalms or even throughout various books in both Old and New Testaments.
