1641 Angel Beats Donkey Gerard Valck Nicolaes De Bruyn Refuses Scenic Speak Stick Sword Balaam Threatens

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Balaam and the Angel" we are transported back to 1641, courtesy of artists Nicolaes de Bruyn and Gerard Valck. The scene depicts a dramatic moment from the biblical story of Balaam, where he encounters an angel on his journey. The landscape surrounding Balaam is beautifully rendered, showcasing rolling hills and lush greenery that add depth to the composition. Positioned at the center is Balaam himself, astride his loyal donkey who refuses to move forward. With a sword threateningly raised above its head, an imposing angel confronts them both. The tension in this scene is palpable as Balaam strikes his stubborn animal with a stick while desperately trying to make it proceed. The intricate details captured by de Bruyn and Valck bring life to every element - from the determination etched on Balaam's face to the fear reflected in his donkey's eyes. This print serves as a reminder of human perseverance in challenging situations but also highlights our need for humility when faced with divine intervention. Quint Lox skillfully captures these emotions through their lens, allowing us to appreciate this timeless tale anew.
