EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print showcases Michelangelo Buonarroti's masterpiece, "The Moses," a prime example of High Renaissance sculpture created around 1513-1515. Commissioned by Pope Julius II for his tomb, this sculpture is now proudly displayed in the church of San Pietro in Vincoli in Rome. The figure of Moses, carved from stone, embodies the biblical character's wisdom and enlightenment through the distinctive feature of horns on his head. This symbolism, derived from a mistranslation of the Hebrew word for "rays of light," has been a subject of fascination and debate among art historians and theologians. The flowing robes and intricate details of Moses' facial features display Michelangelo's exceptional skill and artistry, making this sculpture an enduring icon of the Renaissance period.
