EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning illustration from the Dore Bible captures the momentous arrival of Jacob and his sons in Egypt. Created by the talented French artist Gustave Dore in 1866, this engraving is part of a series that brought to life scenes from the Bible de Tours.
In this particular image, we see Jacob and his sons making their way through the desert on camels, with a herd of sheep following closely behind. The men are depicted with walking sticks in hand, while women carry pitchers and other supplies for their journey. The sky above them is vast and open, emphasizing the magnitude of their pilgrimage.
The attention to detail in Dore's work is truly remarkable - from the intricate engravings on each figure's clothing to the expressions on their faces as they approach their new home in Egypt. This illustration serves as a powerful reminder of faith, family, and resilience in the face of adversity.
As we gaze upon this timeless scene, we are transported back to a time when belief guided every step taken by these biblical characters. It is a testament to both Dore's artistic skill and his deep reverence for religious stories that continue to inspire millions around the world today.
