Broadside with 48 scenes illustrating passages of holy scripture (Part I) 1868

This 1868 broadside by Antonio Bosch (1860-1880) features 48 scenes illustrating passages from the Holy Scripture. The piece, titled "Historia Sagrada... Primera Parte" (Holy History... First Part), is a part of a larger series that tells the story of the Bible. Each scene is framed within a square, and the use of woodcuts gives a sense of depth to each image. This artwork provides a visual narrative of biblical stories, making it accessible to viewers who may not be familiar with the text itself. This intricate piece, located in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City, is a testament to the power of art in communicating religious narratives.
