EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Nebuchadnezzar dwelling with the beasts of the field" transports us back to biblical times. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print depicts a powerful scene from the Old Testament. Intriguingly wild and filled with symbolism, we witness King Nebuchadnezzar's descent into madness and subsequent humbling before God. According to the Book of Daniel in the Bible, as punishment for his pride and arrogance, Nebuchadnezzar was driven away from human society and forced to live among wild animals in the wilderness. The image beautifully captures this extraordinary moment as Nebuchadnezzar is surrounded by various creatures of the field. His disheveled appearance reflects his mental state while emphasizing his loss of power and authority. Through its meticulous detail and digital cleaning techniques, this engraving brings new life to an age-old story that holds significance across multiple religions including Christianity, Judaism, and more. It serves as a reminder of divine justice and how even mighty rulers can be brought low when they defy higher powers. Displayed within private collections worldwide, this artwork continues to inspire contemplation on themes such as punishment, religious devotion, humility before God's will, and ultimately redemption. Its inclusion in The Prize Bible further emphasizes its importance within Christian literature. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection today, let us reflect on our own actions and remember that true strength
