EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting 19th century engraving by Gustave Dore depicts a pivotal moment in the Old Testament narrative of Jacob, the beloved patriarch and prophet of the Hebrew faith. The scene unfolds in the house of his uncle Laban, where Jacob has come to work in exchange for the hand of his beloved Rachel in marriage. Jacob is shown in the foreground, dressed in simple shepherd's attire, tending to his flock of sheep and cattle as they graze peacefully on the lush, green grass. The peaceful scene is in stark contrast to the complex web of deceit and manipulation that surrounds Jacob in Laban's household. In the background, Laban's house stands proudly, its walls adorned with intricate Hebrew script and vibrant colors. A jar sits atop a windowsill, filled with what appears to be grain or other provisions. The scene is one of quiet industry, with Jacob's hard work providing for his growing family, which includes not only Rachel but also her older sister Leah, whom Jacob was also obligated to marry as part of the marriage contract. The engraving captures the essence of the biblical story, with its themes of faith, family, and hard work. The use of color adds depth and richness to the image, transporting the viewer back in time to the ancient world of the Hebrew patriarchs.
