EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a powerful and haunting scene depicting the biblical event of the death of the firstborn in Egypt. Created by Jan Luyken, a renowned Dutch artist from Amsterdam between 1703 and 1762, this piece is an exquisite example of his mastery in etching on paper. The image portrays a pivotal moment in ancient history when God's wrath descended upon Egypt, resulting in the tragic demise of every firstborn son, including that of Pharaoh himself. Luyken skillfully captures the raw emotions and despair felt during this catastrophic event through his intricate details and expressive lines. Measuring at approximately 111 mm high and 160 mm wide, this print demands attention with its striking composition. The dark tones contrasted with subtle highlights create a somber atmosphere that perfectly reflects the gravity of these events. As you gaze upon this artwork, let your imagination transport you back to ancient times as you contemplate both the historical significance and artistic brilliance captured within it. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to Jan Luyken's talent as well as an enduring reminder of humanity's complex relationship with power, faith, and mortality
