EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century depicts a powerful biblical scene - "Jeroboam's hand withers, I Kings, Chapter XIII, Verse 4". The image is part of a private collection and was originally created as an illustration for A New Family Bible in 1805. The artwork showcases the dramatic moment when Jeroboam's hand begins to wither as a divine punishment. This event is described in the Book of Kings in the Old Testament. The intricate details of the engraving bring this ancient story to life, capturing both the physical agony and spiritual significance of Jeroboam's affliction. The skilled English School artist behind this piece expertly conveys emotion through their masterful use of line work and shading. Every stroke adds depth to Jeroboam's contorted hand, emphasizing his suffering while highlighting its symbolic meaning within biblical context. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness this supernatural occurrence firsthand. It serves as a reminder of humanity's eternal fascination with religious narratives and our desire to visually interpret these stories through art. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from history, allowing us to appreciate its artistic merit while also exploring its cultural and historical significance.
