EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense moment of Abraham's sacrifice of Isaac, depicted in vibrant colors through a lithographic technique. The artwork belongs to a private collection and is attributed to the French School of the 19th century. The scene portrays one of the most profound stories from the Bible - Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his beloved son, Isaac, as a test of his faith. As Abraham raises his knife above Isaac, an angel appears in divine intervention. This pivotal moment showcases both Abraham's unwavering devotion and God's mercy. The image is part of an illustration for Histoire Sainte, a publication by Guerin around 1890. Created by "H Grobet" this particular depiction beautifully conveys the emotional turmoil experienced by all involved parties: Abraham torn between obedience and love for his son, Isaac unaware yet trusting in his father's actions, and the angel bringing solace amidst impending tragedy. Through its intricate details and vivid hues, this artwork invites viewers into an ancient biblical narrative that continues to resonate with audiences today. It serves as a reminder of human strength tested against divine will and offers contemplation on themes such as sacrifice, faithfulness, and redemption. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection so that it can be appreciated for generations to come.
