EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Finding of Moses" by Cornelis van Poelenburgh, a renowned Dutch artist from the 17th century. The artwork, housed in the esteemed Johnny van Haeften Gallery in London, UK, depicts a pivotal moment from the biblical story of Exodus. In this scene, we witness Pharaoh's daughter discovering baby Moses hidden among the reeds along the riverbank. The composition beautifully captures her astonishment and compassion as she gazes upon the infant with tender care. Poelenburgh's masterful brushstrokes bring to life every intricate detail of this religious narrative. "The Finding of Moses" is an iconic representation of Christian faith and holds significant historical importance within Old Testament scripture. It serves as a reminder of God's providence and protection over His chosen people during times of adversity. While nudity may be present in this artwork due to its historical context, it should not overshadow its spiritual significance or detract from its artistic merit. Instead, let us appreciate how Poelenburgh skillfully portrays vulnerability through his depiction of nakedness – symbolizing both innocence and dependence on divine intervention. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder allows art enthusiasts worldwide to access and enjoy remarkable pieces like "The Finding of Moses". Through their efforts, these timeless works continue to inspire contemplation and appreciation for centuries-old artistic achievements that transcend time and culture.
