EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Gideon and the wet sheepskin" we are transported to a moment of intense determination and resourcefulness. The print, created by renowned artist Jan Luyken in collaboration with Pieter Arentsz and Cornelis van der Sys II in 1712, beautifully captures the essence of the biblical story. At its center, Gideon can be seen pressing a fleece against his body, wringing out every last drop of water into a bowl. The fleece is visibly soaked, indicating that it had been placed outside overnight to collect dew as a sign from God. This act symbolizes Gideon's unwavering faith and his willingness to follow divine guidance. Luyken's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this composition. The bowl is filled to the brim with water, emphasizing the miraculous nature of this event. The wet sheepskin glistens under the light, showcasing Luyken's mastery at capturing texture and depth. As viewers, we are drawn into this scene through Quint Lox's lens who has expertly captured all these intricate details for us to admire. This print from Liszt Collection serves as a testament not only to Luyken's artistic prowess but also to Gideon's unwavering faith in God’s guidance.
