Lot and His Daughters, 1496-1499 - A Captivating Biblical Scene by Albrecht Durer
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by renowned artist Albrecht Durer, we are transported back to the biblical story of Lot and his daughters. Taken from the nineteenth chapter of the Book of Genesis, this painting beautifully captures a moment of both destruction and escape. Set against a backdrop of an ancient city, possibly Sodom, we witness Lot leading his family away from impending doom. The vibrant colors bring life to the scene as they walk together in unity - father protecting his daughters. Durer's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; he skillfully portrays each character's emotions. The bundle carried on one daughter's head symbolizes their journey into uncertainty while showcasing their strength and determination. This masterpiece not only showcases Durer's artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to religious themes prevalent during that era. It reminds us of the power and significance of biblical stories within Christianity and Judaism alike. As we observe this fifteenth-century artwork today, it continues to evoke contemplation about familial bonds, faithfulness, and resilience in times of adversity. This print from the Samuel H Kress Collection in Washington DC allows us to appreciate Durer's contribution to art history while immersing ourselves in an age-old tale that still resonates with audiences worldwide.
