Cornelis Cort Isaac Jacob Julius Goltzius Gravures Anciennes Kupferstich Kabinett Old Master Prints
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Jacob gets the paternal blessing of Isaac" we are transported back in time to witness a significant biblical moment. Created by Cornelis Cort and Julius Goltzius between 1563 and 1601, this exquisite engraving showcases their mastery of detail and storytelling. The scene depicts the pivotal event from the Book of Genesis when Jacob deceives his father, Isaac, to obtain his brother Esau's birthright blessing. The tension is palpable as Jacob kneels before an aged Isaac who is blindfolded, unaware of his son's true identity. With delicate precision, Cort and Goltzius capture every emotion on the characters' faces - Jacob's anxiety mixed with determination, while Isaac appears both vulnerable and contemplative. The composition is further enhanced by intricate linework that brings depth to each figure's clothing and facial features. This attention to detail highlights the artists' technical prowess in capturing human expression through engravings. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection at Kupferstich-Kabinett Arkheia, we cannot help but marvel at its historical significance. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of art in preserving stories that have shaped our collective consciousness for centuries. This print stands as a reminder of how visual representations can transport us across time and space, allowing us to connect with ancient narratives on a profound level.
