EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 14th century and witness a pivotal moment from the Bible. Rebecca, depicted by an unknown artist, brings her son Jacob before her husband Isaac in a desperate attempt to protect him from their vengeful brother Esau. The scene is taken from Codex 212, also known as the Padovano or Bible of Padua, which was created between 1390 and 1400 in Rovigo, Italy. The intricate illumination and miniature work on this manuscript bring the biblical narrative to life with remarkable detail. Rebecca's face reflects both determination and fear as she pleads for Isaac's blessing for Jacob instead of Esau. Her actions reveal a mother's unwavering love and willingness to go against convention to secure her son's future. Esau looms menacingly in the background, his anger palpable as he threatens Jacob's life. This tense family dynamic adds depth to the story and highlights the high stakes involved. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this historical moment through her lens, preserving it for generations to come. As we gaze upon this print at Museo dell Accademia dei Concordi in Rovigo, Italy, we are reminded of the power of art to transport us across time and immerse us in ancient tales that still resonate today.
