EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print captures a biblical scene from Exodus 32:8, depicting the Israelites' act of idolatry by creating and worshipping a molten calf. The image is based on Nicolas Poussin's early 17th-century painting, "The Adoration of the Golden Calf". In this momentous event, the Israelites, fearing Moses would not return from Mount Sinai, deviated from God's commandments and fashioned a graven image using melted-down gold jewelry. The engraving showcases men, women, and children kneeling in prayer and prostration before the golden statue. Their faces reflect both awe and devotion as they believe this calf to be their savior who brought them out of Egypt. The sculpture stands tall on an altar while flames flicker nearby symbolizing both divine presence and sacrificial offerings. H Robinson skillfully captured the essence of this religious narrative through his detailed black-and-white artwork. This powerful visual representation serves as a reminder of humanity's tendency to stray from faith when faced with uncertainty or fear. Through this historical depiction, viewers are invited to contemplate themes such as belief systems, religious devotion, obedience to divine instructions, and the consequences that arise when humans succumb to idolatry. It is a timeless reflection on human nature that continues to resonate across cultures and religions today.
