EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, titled "Letter representing an Egyptian mother finding an abandoned child (Moses saves waters)" transports us back to ancient Egypt in the late 19th century. The image depicts a poignant scene of a young Egyptian mother discovering an abandoned child amidst the vast and majestic landscape. The intricate details of this artwork showcase the skillful craftsmanship of the French School from the 19th century. Measuring only 10x7 cm, it is remarkable how such a small print can evoke such powerful emotions. The colors are vibrant, bringing life to every element within the composition. This particular piece was part of an alphabet series called "Abeecedaire" specially published for Louit Chocolate by Louis Freres et Cie: Bordeaux dynasty of chocolatiers and mustardiers circa 1870. It is fascinating to see how art and commerce intersected even during that time period. As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are reminded of biblical stories and their enduring impact on our collective consciousness. Moses saving baby Moses from certain doom in the waters resonates with themes of hope, redemption, and maternal love. Through this artwork's portrayal of ancient Egypt's natural beauty and its depiction of familial bonds transcending time, we are invited to reflect on our own connections with nature, family, and history. This print serves as a timeless reminder that love knows no boundaries or limitations – it is universal across cultures and generations.
