EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The People of Naphtali carried into Captivity by the Assyrians" takes us back to biblical times and immerses us in a powerful story. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection. The scene depicted here transports us to a moment of great turmoil and despair for the people of Naphtali. The Assyrians, known for their military might, have conquered them and are forcefully leading them away from their homeland into captivity. This dramatic illustration was originally intended as an accompaniment to Cassells Illustrated Family Bible Superior Edition, published around 1880. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can't help but be reminded of the rich narratives found within the Old Testament. It serves as a visual representation of one chapter in the long history chronicled within its pages - a testament to human resilience amidst adversity. With intricate details and skilled craftsmanship, this engraving captures both the physical anguish and emotional weight felt by those being taken captive. It invites viewers to reflect on themes such as faith, survival, and hope that resonate throughout biblical stories. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we are fortunate enough to witness this historical masterpiece up close while appreciating its significance within religious art.
