EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from the Cologne Bible, created between 1478 and 1480, depicts a powerful biblical scene - Yohevet hiding her infant son Moses. In this momentous event, Yohevet places baby Moses into an ark made of bulrushes and sets it upon the waters of the majestic Nile River. As fate would have it, Pharaoh's daughter discovers the precious child while he peacefully rests in his makeshift cradle. The intricate details of this medieval artwork transport us to ancient Egypt, where we witness a blend of North African and Renaissance influences. The artist skillfully portrays the bustling cityscape with its towering buildings and drawbridge over a moat. Amidst this backdrop, Yohevet carries out her courageous act of love as she hides her Israelite son from Pharaoh's wrath. This image holds deep religious significance for both Judaism and Christianity alike. It symbolizes not only the strength and determination of a mother protecting her child but also serves as a testament to God's divine plan unfolding through ordinary people. Granger Art on Demand has beautifully preserved this historical masterpiece by Granger NYC / The Granger Collection. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of timeless themes such as faith, sacrifice, and hope that resonate across generations.
