EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century illustration depicts the biblical story of God humbling the proud King Nebuchanezzar. According to the Book of Daniel in the Old Testament, Nebuchanezzar was a powerful and arrogant ruler of Babylon who boasted that his kingdom was self-sufficient and that he was greater than God. God, in response, afflicted him with madness, causing him to live like an animal in the fields and eat grass like a cow. The scene in this illustration shows Nebuchanezzar in a state of humiliation, surrounded by the lush green grass and cows grazing peacefully. He is depicted with a wild and disheveled appearance, wearing only animal skins and with a look of remorse on his face. The illustration effectively conveys the idea of God's divine power and the consequences of human pride. This image is a beautiful example of 18th century biblical illustration, with intricate details and a sense of drama that brings the story to life. The use of natural elements such as the grass and the cows adds to the serene and pastoral atmosphere, while the contrast between the regal Nebuchanezzar and his humbled state emphasizes the moral of the story. This illustration is a powerful reminder of the importance of humility and the consequences of pride, and is a valuable addition to any collection of biblical art or Christian imagery. The intricate details and beautiful composition make it a stunning work of art that is sure to captivate and inspire.
