Decalogue Dore Exodus Gustave Hebrew L Aw Moses Sinai Tablet
EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, titled "Moses Breaking the Tablets of the Law" is a powerful depiction of a pivotal moment in biblical history. Created by Gustave Doré and skillfully reproduced by The Granger Collection, this print captures the intense emotions and dramatic scene from Exodus 32:19. In this iconic image, Moses can be seen holding two stone tablets high above his head, ready to shatter them onto the ground below. The weight of his actions is palpable as he confronts the Israelites for their grave sin of idolatry while he was receiving God's commandments on Mount Sinai. Doré's intricate detailing brings every element to life - from Moses' determined expression to the awe-struck faces of those witnessing this profound act. The composition exudes an aura of divine justice and righteous anger as Moses takes decisive action against those who have strayed from God's path. The significance of this event cannot be overstated; it represents not only a breaking point in Israelite history but also serves as a reminder that adherence to God's laws is paramount. This wood engraving beautifully encapsulates both the gravity and consequences associated with disobedience. Whether displayed in homes or places of worship, this print serves as a visual testament to faith and moral accountability. It invites contemplation on our own relationship with divine guidance and reminds us that even great leaders like Moses faced difficult choices when confronted with human frailty.
