EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in biblical history, depicting Moses Breaking the Tablets of the Law. Engraved by Hotelin in 1868, this powerful image showcases Gustave Dore's exceptional talent as an artist. The scene unfolds on Mount Sinai, where Moses receives the divine commandments from God. In this engraving, we witness Moses' righteous anger and frustration with his disobedient people, the Israelites. With lightning striking dramatically behind him, he hurls the tablets to the ground in a display of fury. This act symbolizes both his disappointment and their betrayal of God's sacred laws. The intensity of emotion conveyed through Dore's intricate engravings is truly remarkable. As viewers, we can almost feel the fear and awe that must have gripped those present at this monumental event. Moses stands as a fearless prophet, driven by his unwavering faith and devotion to uphold God's commandments. This image serves as a poignant reminder not only of our own human fallibility but also of the consequences that arise from straying from righteousness. It encapsulates themes found throughout religious texts such as Christianity and Judaism while exploring universal emotions like rage and frustration. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder, let us reflect on our own actions and consider how they align with our moral compasses. May it inspire us to seek guidance from ancient wisdoms found within sacred texts like Genesis or Exodus – reminding us to strive for goodness even amidst moments of anger or temptation.
