EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century wood engraving, based on Gustave Doré's artwork, depicts a poignant biblical scene from Genesis 21:14. The print showcases the heart-wrenching moment when Hagar and her son Ishmael are expelled by Abraham. In this powerful image, we witness the anguish etched on Hagar's face as she clings to her young child while being cast out into the wilderness. The artist masterfully captures the emotional turmoil of this mother and son duo, highlighting their vulnerability and despair. The intricate details of Doré's engraving bring to life the ancient setting in which this event unfolds. From the flowing robes of Abraham to the barren landscape surrounding them, every element contributes to creating an atmosphere of desolation and isolation. This evocative artwork not only serves as a visual representation of a significant biblical narrative but also invites contemplation on themes such as faith, sacrifice, and divine providence. It prompts viewers to reflect upon the complexities of human relationships and empathy for those who find themselves marginalized or displaced. As part of The Granger Collection's vast art collection, this print offers a glimpse into both French artistic mastery and religious iconography that has resonated with audiences for centuries. Whether appreciated for its historical significance or admired for its aesthetic beauty, "HAGAR & ISHMAEL" is undoubtedly an enduring piece that continues to captivate viewers with its timeless message.
