Painting Description
"Mose e il Serpente di Bronzo" (Moses and the Bronze Serpent) is an etching by the French artist Raymond Lafage (1656–1684), known for his mastery in drawing and printmaking. The work is based on a biblical episode from the Book of Numbers (21:4-9), where Moses, following God's instructions, creates a bronze serpent on a pole to heal the Israelites from venomous snake bites. Those who looked upon the bronze serpent were miraculously cured, prefiguring the Christian symbol of salvation.
Lafage's depiction of this scene is notable for its dynamic composition and intricate line work, which showcases his skill in conveying movement and drama. The etching likely dates from the latter part of the 17th century, a period when religious themes were common in art, and artists often sought to illustrate moral lessons or scriptural events with emotional impact and allegorical significance.
The artwork reflects the Baroque style of the time, characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as a sense of movement and emotional intensity. Lafage's treatment of the subject matter demonstrates his ability to blend classical influences with the Baroque sensibility, creating a work that is both evocative of the period's artistic trends and representative of his personal style.
"Mose e il Serpente di Bronzo" is considered an important work within Lafage's oeuvre, exemplifying his talent as an engraver and his contribution to the graphic arts. The etching not only serves as a testament to Lafage's artistic abilities but also provides insight into the religious and cultural milieu of 17th-century France. As with many of Lafage's works, this etching would have been collected and admired by art connoisseurs of the time for its technical proficiency and its interpretation of a timeless biblical story.
