DEPORTATION OF JEWS - A Historical Illustration of Tragedy and Exile
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases a powerful moment in history, depicting the deportation of Jews by King Salmanazar V of Assyria in 721 B. C. The image is an exquisite manuscript illumination from the French work "Antiquites des Juifs" by Jean Fouquet, created around the fifteenth century. In this scene, we witness the heart-wrenching sight of ten tribes of Jews being taken captive and forced to leave their homeland in Samaria. The Assyrian king's carriage stands as a symbol of oppression and power as it carries away these unfortunate prisoners. Their faces reflect anguish and despair, representing the immense suffering endured during this dark period. The artwork not only captures a significant event but also pays homage to Josephus, whose historical account inspired Fouquet's creation. This piece serves as a reminder of the diaspora experienced by Jewish communities throughout history and highlights their resilience amidst adversity. Through its intricate details and vivid colors, this manuscript illumination transports us back to ancient times when kingdoms clashed and lives were uprooted. It invites contemplation on themes such as displacement, persecution, and human strength in overcoming unimaginable challenges. As part of Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection, this print offers viewers an opportunity to connect with history while honoring those who have faced similar struggles throughout time.
