EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "The Lord sent thunder and hail" depicts a powerful biblical scene from Exodus, ix, 23. Created by the English School in the 19th century, this print showcases the awe-inspiring moment when God unleashes his wrath upon Egypt. The image captures the intensity of the divine intervention as thunderbolts streak across the sky and hailstones rain down upon the land. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable, with each lightning bolt meticulously etched into the composition. The dark clouds looming overhead create an atmosphere of impending doom, while tiny figures below seek shelter from nature's fury. This artwork serves as a visual reminder of God's omnipotence and his ability to command even the elements themselves. Originally featured in The Sunday Scrap Book published by Cassell around 1890, this digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate its intricate beauty today. Preserved within a private collection, it offers viewers a glimpse into religious history and invites contemplation on themes of faith and divine power. Bridgeman Images presents this exceptional piece through Fine Art Finder without commercial intent or mention. As we gaze at this engraving, we are reminded of humanity's humble place in relation to forces beyond our control - a testament to both artistic skill and spiritual reflection.
