EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Lot and his Daughters" by Franz Anton Hartmann, a renowned German artist of the Baroque era. Created in the 1720s, this painting can be found in the esteemed collection of the State A. Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow. The artwork depicts a scene from the Old Testament's Book of Genesis, specifically focusing on Lot and his daughters. In this biblical tale, Lot and his family flee from the sinful cities of Sodom and Gomorrah before their destruction. However, after settling in a cave, Lot's daughters devise a plan to ensure their father's lineage continues by getting him intoxicated and having relations with him. Hartmann skillfully captures this morally complex narrative through his meticulous brushwork and use of oil on copper medium. The rich colors and intricate details bring life to each character while highlighting their emotions amidst such an extraordinary circumstance. As viewers engage with this piece, they are invited to reflect upon themes such as sin, temptation, morality, and familial bonds depicted within religious texts like Tanakh or Old Testament. This photograph serves as a testament to Hartmann's artistic prowess while also offering an opportunity for contemplation on timeless moral dilemmas presented throughout history.
