"The Finding of Moses" is a 1630s oil painting by Christiaen van Couwenbergh, a Dutch Golden Age painter known for his history paintings and portraits. The artwork depicts the biblical episode from the Book of Exodus where the infant Moses is discovered among the reeds of the Nile by Pharaoh's daughter and her attendants. This subject was a popular theme in art, symbolizing divine providence and often serving as an allegory for the exposure and salvation of the true faith.

Van Couwenbergh's interpretation of the scene is characterized by its vivid detail and the dramatic use of light and shadow, typical of the Caravaggisti, artists influenced by the style of Caravaggio. The painting showcases the artist's skill in rendering textures and expressions, with a focus on the emotional interaction between the figures. The central figure of Pharaoh's daughter is often depicted with a gesture of surprise or maternal affection upon finding the baby, and this emotional nuance is a hallmark of van Couwenbergh's work.

Born in 1604 in Delft, Christiaen van Couwenbergh was a contemporary of other notable Dutch painters and was influenced by the artistic trends of his time, including the works of the Utrecht Caravaggisti. "The Finding of Moses" is a testament to his ability to blend these influences with his own artistic vision, creating a work that is both a reflection of its era and a personal statement by the artist.

The painting is part of the collection of the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, where it remains an important example of Dutch Golden Age painting and the international Caravaggisti movement. Its presence in the Hermitage highlights the cross-cultural appreciation and influence of Dutch art during the 17th century, as well as the enduring interest in biblical narratives as subjects for artistic expression.
