EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from the Cologne Bible of 1478-80 depicts a pivotal moment in the biblical story of Moses and the Plagues. The scene portrays two of the final plagues inflicted upon Egypt as a punishment for Pharaoh's refusal to release the Israelites from slavery. In Exodus 10:21-23, darkness descends upon Egypt, enveloping everything in an impenetrable blackness that lasts for three days. This eerie visual is masterfully captured in this woodcut, with its intricate details showcasing the intensity and suffocating nature of this supernatural darkness. The second part of the print illustrates Exodus 11:1-10, depicting one of the most devastating plagues -the Slaughter of the Firstborn. As God's judgment falls upon Egypt, every firstborn child and animal are struck down by death. The anguish and despair on display through this woodcut evoke a sense of sorrow and loss. Created during medieval times, this German woodcut exemplifies both artistic skill and religious devotion. It serves as a reminder not only of historical events but also highlights themes such as faith, leadership, divine intervention, and liberation. Through its meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail, this woodcut transports viewers back to ancient times while simultaneously inviting contemplation on timeless questions about power dynamics between oppressors and oppressed. A powerful testament to human resilience amidst adversity emerges from within these haunting images; it serves as an enduring symbol for those who seek justice against all odds.
