Taferelen uit het leven van Mozes 1500 - 1549

"Taferelen uit het leven van Mozes" (Scenes from the life of Moses) is an anonymous drawing from the 16th century, depicting scenes from the Old Testament book of Exodus. The detailed, intricate lines of the drawing capture the chaotic and dramatic nature of the scenes, including the crossing of the Red Sea and the Golden Calf incident. The drawing was created in the Netherlands during the Renaissance period and likely functioned as a preparatory study for a larger work. The drawing's detailed representation of biblical scenes provides insight into the artistic and religious sensibilities of the time.
