EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Moses Breaketh the Tables of Stone" transports us back to a pivotal moment in biblical history. Created by Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld and now part of a private collection, this print is a powerful visual representation of an iconic story from the Bible. The image depicts Moses, one of the most revered figures in religious history, breaking the stone tablets upon which the Ten Commandments were inscribed. The intensity on his face reflects his righteous anger as he discovers that his people have turned away from God and worshiped idols in the form of a golden calf. Schnorr von Carolsfeld's attention to detail brings this dramatic scene to life. From Moses' flowing robes and long beard to the shattered tablets at his feet, every element contributes to our understanding of this significant event. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth and emotion to the composition. Originally published as part of "The Bible in Pictures or Scripture History illustrated in a series of one hundred and eighty engravings" this digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate Schnorr von Carolsfeld's artistry with clarity. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are reminded not only of Moses' unwavering commitment to upholding God's commandments but also how easily humanity can stray from righteousness. It serves as a timeless reminder for all generations about the importance of faith, obedience, and staying true to one's beliefs even when faced with adversity.
