EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the pivotal moment in biblical history when Esau, driven by hunger and exhaustion from his hunt, makes a fateful decision to sell his birthright to his brother Jacob. The scene unfolds at a rustic table where both brothers sit, their contrasting personalities evident in their body language. Esau extends his hand towards Jacob, sealing the deal with a handshake while simultaneously reaching for the plate of lentils that symbolizes the immediate gratification he seeks. A loyal hunting dog lies peacefully on the floor, perhaps unaware of the significance of this transaction taking place before him. In the background, Sara and Jacob stand beside Isaac's bedside, adding an additional layer of tension and emotion to this poignant moment. Paulus Moreelse's masterful copy after 1609 brings this timeless story to life through skillful brushwork and rich oil paint. The canvas itself measures an impressive 124 cm in height and 160.7 cm in width, allowing viewers to immerse themselves fully into this dramatic narrative. As you gaze upon this remarkable print from Liszt Collection, let your imagination transport you back in time as you contemplate themes of sacrifice, temptation, and familial bonds. This artwork serves as a powerful reminder that even our most basic desires can lead us down unexpected paths with far-reaching consequences.
