EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Brazen Serpent" a significant biblical scene from a bible printed by Edward Gover in the 1870s. The lithograph, created by Bendixen, Siegfried Detler, is part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection and is now out of copyright. In this religious masterpiece, we witness Moses' miraculous act to save his people from the venomous snakes that plagued them during their journey through the wilderness. As described in the Old Testament, Moses was instructed by God to fashion a bronze serpent and place it on a pole. Anyone who looked upon this symbol would be healed from snake bites. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings this ancient tale to life. A vast landscape stretches behind Moses as he holds up the brazen serpent for all to see. Surrounding him are crowds of people seeking salvation and protection for themselves and their loved ones. The engraving beautifully captures both the awe-inspiring power of faith and the vulnerability of humanity. It serves as a powerful reminder of how belief can overcome adversity and provide hope even in dire circumstances. This remarkable piece not only celebrates an important moment within Christianity but also highlights our enduring fascination with religious narratives throughout history. Through its intricate depiction of wildlife intertwined with divine intervention, it invites viewers into an exploration of spirituality that transcends time and culture.
