EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring biblical scene of "Joshua Commanding the Sun to Stand still upon Gibeon". Painted by John Martin in 1816, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 150x231 cm and is housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC. The artwork depicts a town nestled in the north-western region of Jerusalem, where soldiers stand alongside a majestic mountain. The sky above is filled with drama as a thunder cloud looms overhead, darkening the landscape. Joshua, surrounded by troops and kings of Gibeon, commands the sun to halt its movement across the sky. Martin's extensive biblical landscape showcases his mastery of capturing both light and darkness. The miracle being performed before our eyes is nothing short of extraordinary as it unfolds amidst a convoy army and towering mountains that stretch into an expansive panorama. This print transports us back in time to witness this monumental event from ancient history. It serves as a powerful reminder of Joshua's unwavering faith and divine intervention. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we cannot help but be captivated by its sheer magnitude and profound significance.
