The central detail showcases Jethro and his daughters, with Moses and his wife Zipporah in the background.

Moses, a Hebrew prophet and legislator of the Old Testament, is depicted alongside his father-in-law Jethro and wife Zipporah. The scene exudes a sense of reverence and spirituality, as Moses interacts with his extended family in a harmonious setting.
The rich colors and detailed craftsmanship of this tapestry reflect the artistry of Flemish culture during the Renaissance period. Every thread tells a story, weaving together themes of love, loyalty, and divine guidance.
As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece from Zaragoza University Library's collection, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous event that has been immortalized through centuries-old traditions.
