EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Orazio Gentileschi's masterpiece, "La decouverte de Moise - The Finding of Moses". Painted in 1633, this oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 242x281 and is housed in the prestigious Museo del Prado in Madrid. Gentileschi skillfully depicts a pivotal moment from the biblical story of Moses, as he is discovered by Pharaoh's daughter along the banks of the Nile River. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing to life the characters and their emotions. The scene unfolds with a sense of awe and wonder as a group gathers around the basket containing baby Moses. A woman, believed to be Pharaoh's daughter herself, gazes upon him with tenderness while wearing a majestic crown that signifies her royal status. This powerful juxtaposition between royalty and humility adds depth to the narrative. The serene riverbank setting exudes tranquility and beauty, emphasizing both nature's role in preserving Moses' life and his eventual destiny as a leader chosen by God. Through this painting, Gentileschi invites viewers to reflect on themes such as faith, fate, and divine intervention. With its rich symbolism and masterful execution, "La decouverte de Moise" remains an enduring testament to Gentileschi's artistic prowess. This print allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate this remarkable work from one of Italy's most celebrated painters.
