EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Numbers 16 32 The Earth swallows the rebels Dathan and Abiram" transports us back to the 15th century, showcasing a coloured woodcut from the renowned Nuremberg Bible. This particular piece, part of The Stapleton Collection, captures a pivotal moment in biblical history. The image depicts two figures, Dathan and Abiram, who dared to rebel against Moses and challenge divine authority. As punishment for their defiance, the earth opens up beneath them, swallowing them whole. This powerful representation of divine retribution serves as a stark reminder of the consequences that befall those who stray from righteousness. The German School's intricate craftsmanship is evident in this woodcut; every detail meticulously carved and brought to life with vibrant colors. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on themes such as sinners' fate and the unwavering power of faith. As we gaze upon this historical artwork preserved within a private collection, it prompts contemplation about our own actions and choices. It reminds us that even in ancient times, rebellion against higher powers was met with severe consequences. Let this image serve as a testament to humanity's eternal struggle between good and evil—a timeless reminder that divine justice prevails over those who dare defy it.
