EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned painting "Moses (Mose) saves waters" by Nicolas Poussin, a masterful work created in 1638. The oil on canvas piece measures 0.93 x 1.21 meters and is currently housed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The painting depicts a pivotal moment from biblical history where Moses, as a baby, is saved from certain death by being placed in a basket and set adrift on the Nile River. The scene exudes both serenity and tension as Moses floats amidst lush vegetation while an Egyptian woman gazes upon him with curiosity and compassion. Poussin's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing the essence of ancient Egypt with its rich colors and intricate patterns. This artwork not only portrays an iconic Bible character but also explores themes of childhood, adoption, and religious devotion. The image transports viewers back to antiquity, inviting them to reflect on the power of faith and destiny. It serves as a reminder that even in times of adversity or uncertainty, there is always hope for salvation. Jean-Louis Josse's expert photography skillfully captures this masterpiece's beauty while preserving its historical significance for generations to come.
