EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Zebulon, c1590," is a stunning work of art by the Flemish artist Jacques de Gheyn II. Part of his series "The Twelve Sons of Jacob," this print depicts Zebulon, one of the twelve tribes of Israel, as described in the Old Testament of the Bible. Zebulon is shown as a strong and determined man, dressed in the clothing of the 16th century. He is depicted with a serious expression, holding a staff in his right hand and a book in his left. The background of the print features a rocky, barren landscape, symbolizing the challenges and hardships that the Israelites faced during their journey from Egypt to the Promised Land. The print is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Flanders, Belgium, during the 16th century. Jacques de Gheyn II was a master engraver, known for his intricate and detailed works. This print, with its bold lines and contrasting textures, is a prime example of his skill and artistry. The Israelites, including Zebulon, are an important part of both Jewish and Christian heritage and religion. The Twelve Tribes of Israel are mentioned numerous times in the Bible and are still celebrated in Jewish and Christian traditions today. This print serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of the Old Testament and the important role it continues to play in the world's cultural and religious history. This print is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), located in Los Angeles, California, USA. It is a valuable addition to the museum's extensive collection of European art from the 16th century and beyond.
