EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of Hadrian Relandus' renowned work, "Antiquitates sacrae veterum hebraeorum" from 1708. The image depicts a fascinating representation of Hebrew priests on a magnificent pedestal. At the center, we witness an intricate sacrificial ceremony unfolding before our eyes. The base of the pedestal is adorned with two Hebrew priests standing on either side of a collection of offering bowls. Each priest is accompanied by an animal companion; a goat stands beside the priest on the left, while a powerful bull accompanies the one on the right. This symbolism highlights their integral role in Jewish religious practices and rituals. Above this remarkable scene lies the title of Relandus' book, which serves as a gateway to explore ancient Jewish antiquity and its rich cultural heritage. A breathtaking landscape from that era graces the upper part of this composition, further immersing us into this world filled with profound spiritual significance. The artist behind this exquisite engraving is Jan Goeree, whose name is mentioned alongside his masterful creation. Measuring at approximately 139 mm in height and 88 mm in width, this delicate piece was meticulously crafted on paper using engraving techniques. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork captured by Liszt Collection's lens, we are transported back in time to witness not only an awe-inspiring visual spectacle but also gain insights into Jewish religion, priesthood hierarchy, and sacred traditions involving animals such as goats and bulls.
