EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from the Cologne Bible, created between 1478 and 1480, depicts a powerful biblical scene from Exodus. In this momentous event, Aaron's staff undergoes a remarkable transformation as it turns into a serpent, symbolizing divine intervention. The serpents created by the Egyptian magicians are no match for Aaron's staff, as it devours them with ease. The image showcases Moses on the right side of the composition, using his mystical powers to turn the once pure waters of Egypt into blood. This plague is one of many that were unleashed upon Egypt in an attempt to persuade Pharaoh to release the Israelites from slavery. With intricate details and expert craftsmanship characteristic of medieval woodcuts, this artwork transports us back in time to witness this extraordinary event. The figures portrayed exude an air of mysticism and ancient wisdom. The woodcut also provides glimpses into North African culture through its depiction of traditional attire worn by both Egyptians and Israelites. It serves as a visual representation not only of religious significance but also historical context. Granger Art on Demand presents this stunning piece captured by Granger NYC / The Granger Collection. Its rich symbolism invites contemplation and appreciation for both Christian and Jewish traditions while showcasing artistic excellence rooted in German medieval artistry.
