EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the poignant moment when "The brothers bring Jacob to Egypt". Published in 1875 as part of the book "Bible or Books of New Testament and Old Testament" this illustration by Ivan Burmistrov beautifully depicts a significant event from Genesis 46. In the image, we see a flock of sheep surrounding a group of people traveling through the ancient Middle East. The scene exudes an aura of ancient civilization, with its historical Palestine setting and traditional clothing worn by the individuals. A sense of spirituality emanates from this painted image, showcasing elements related to Judaism, Christianity, and religion as a whole. Jacob, portrayed in his iconic robe, is being led on this journey by his sons. The herder's role symbolizes leadership and highlights their responsibility towards their father. As they make their way to Egypt, it represents both a physical journey but also an emotional one for Jacob and his family. The artist Gustave Dore's influence can be seen in this monoprint's intricate details and masterful use of shading. The etching technique adds depth to the overall composition while capturing the essence of that period. Overall, this artwork invites us to reflect on history, tradition, spirituality, and familial bonds within ancient cultures. It serves as a reminder that even amidst challenging journeys or transitions like Jacob's relocation to Egypt – faith and unity can guide us forward.
