Produced in Antwerp in 1585, the work demonstrates the technical precision characteristic of the Sadeler family, who were prolific printmakers during the late sixteenth century. The composition is dense with symbolic imagery, reflecting the period's fascination with cosmology, astrology, and classical mythology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the centre, a muscular, bearded figure sits atop an eagle, clutching a shield and a celestial diagram. This figure represents Jupiter, the king of the gods, often associated with the planet of the same name. Below him, a central cartouche contains the Latin title, 'Planetarum Effectus', surrounded by an array of military equipment, including cannons, shields, and spears. These elements suggest the influence of planetary bodies on human affairs, particularly the governance of regions and cities, as noted in the surrounding text.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe engraving employs a sophisticated system of cross-hatching and fine line work to create depth and texture. The contrast between the organic forms of the figure and the rigid, metallic surfaces of the weaponry creates a visual tension. The inclusion of heraldic shields and Latin inscriptions indicates that the series was likely commissioned for a patron of high status, linking the celestial order to earthly power structures. The work is a prime example of Northern Mannerist printmaking, where the artist balances anatomical study with complex, layered iconography. The precision of the burin work allows for a clear distinction between the soft feathers of the eagle, the smooth skin of the deity, and the hard, reflective surfaces of the armour. This print offers a glimpse into the intellectual climate of the late Renaissance, where scientific observation and mythological tradition existed in close proximity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-lamoral-count-of-egmont-dominicus-custos\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Lamoral, Count of Egmont - Dominicus Custos — Dominicus Custos\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-golden-age-philips-galle\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Golden Age - Philips Galle — Philip Galle\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Johann Sadeler I","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429077520719,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429080928591,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429080961359,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429080994127,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429081026895,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429081059663,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429081092431,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429081125199,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429081157967,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429081190735,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429081223503,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429081256271,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Seven-Planets-Title-Page-_Poster_CompositorV1_1786175196445.jpg?v=1786231398"},{"product_id":"adam-and-eve-mourning-abels-death-johann-sadeler-i","title":"Adam and Eve Mourning Abel's Death - Johann Sadeler I","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed sixteenth-century engraving depicting the biblical scene of Adam and Eve mourning the death of their son, Abel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis engraving by Johann Sadeler I, after a design by Michiel Coxcie, depicts the immediate aftermath of the first murder in biblical tradition. The composition centres on the prone figure of Abel, whose body lies before an altar where smoke rises from a sacrificial fire. To the left, Adam sits in a posture of contemplation, while Eve kneels to the right, her hands raised to her head in a gesture of grief. The figures exhibit the muscular, elongated proportions characteristic of the Mannerist style, reflecting the influence of Italian art on Northern European printmakers of the late sixteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe print is part of a series illustrating the early chapters of Genesis. The inclusion of Latin text at the base provides a moralising context for the scene, referencing the fratricide described in the fourth chapter of the book. The hand-applied colour adds a layer of definition to the figures and the surrounding environment, distinguishing the pale flesh tones from the earthy greens and browns of the setting. The background features a distant, rolling terrain that provides a sense of scale, contrasting with the immediate, heavy emotional weight of the foreground figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJohann Sadeler I was a prolific engraver who operated within a network of artists and publishers in Antwerp and later in Munich. His work often involved translating the compositions of painters into the medium of print, allowing for wider dissemination of these complex narratives. The technical precision of the line work, combined with the dramatic, theatrical poses of the figures, captures the tension inherent in the subject matter.

As a prominent member of the Flemish Sadeler family of engravers, Johann was known for his technical precision and his ability to disseminate complex theological narratives through print media. The composition follows the conventions of late sixteenth-century Northern Mannerism, where figures are rendered with elongated proportions and a sense of theatrical movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe scene is populated by a diverse array of animals, reflecting the artist's interest in natural history and the encyclopaedic tendencies of the period. A lion, a turkey, and various livestock occupy the foreground and middle ground, surrounding the central figures of the Creator and the newly formed Adam. The Creator, draped in a voluminous robe, gestures towards Adam, who appears in a state of awakening. The background features a rolling terrain that recedes into the distance, providing a sense of scale to the narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelow the image, Latin and Italian inscriptions provide context, citing the Book of Genesis. The application of colour, likely added by hand shortly after the printing process, enhances the clarity of the figures against the verdant setting. The engraving demonstrates the high level of detail achievable through the copperplate technique, with fine lines defining the textures of the animals' fur, the folds of the garments, and the surrounding foliage. This work is representative of the print culture in the Low Countries during the late Renaissance, where religious subjects were frequently produced for a growing market of collectors and scholars interested in both scripture and the natural world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Johann Sadeler I","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429117825359,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429153870159,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429153902927,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429153935695,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429153968463,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429154001231,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429154033999,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429154066767,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429154099535,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429154132303,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429154165071,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429154197839,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Creation-of-Adam_Poster_CompositorV1_1786176276485.jpg?v=1786232183"},{"product_id":"zoerarde-johann-sadeler-i","title":"Zoerarde - Johann Sadeler I","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed sixteenth-century engraving by Johann Sadeler I, depicting the hermit Zoerarde in a meditative forest setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis engraving by Johann Sadeler I, after a design by Maerten de Vos, depicts the hermit Zoerarde in a state of ascetic contemplation. The composition is characteristic of the Northern Mannerist style, where the figure of the saint is integrated into a dense, almost claustrophobic woodland setting. Zoerarde is shown seated within the hollow of a large, gnarled tree, his posture suggesting deep meditation or prayer. A halo of spikes radiates from behind his head, a visual device that contrasts with the naturalistic rendering of the surrounding forest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe print is rich in symbolic detail. A metal crown of thorns hangs above the hermit, while chains are visible at his feet, referencing his self-imposed penance. A book lies open on his lap, and simple objects such as a cup and nuts are placed on the ground, signifying his rejection of worldly comforts. The surrounding trees are rendered with precise, rhythmic lines, creating a sense of texture in the bark and foliage that is typical of Sadeler's technical proficiency as an engraver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaerten de Vos, a prolific Antwerp artist, provided the original drawing for this work. The collaboration between de Vos and the Sadeler family was common during this period, resulting in numerous prints that circulated religious and moralising themes across Europe. The Latin inscription at the base provides a moral commentary on the scene, questioning the nature of vigilance and sleep in the context of spiritual struggle. This print serves as a clear example of the late sixteenth-century interest in eremitic life, where the isolation of the wilderness provided a setting for the examination of faith and human frailty.

The composition follows the conventions of late sixteenth-century Flemish printmaking, where multiple temporal moments are presented within a single frame. In the foreground, Adam and Eve are shown in a state of shame, concealing their bodies behind foliage as they encounter the divine presence. The figure of God, rendered with a radiant halo, stands to the right, while a bear occupies the lower corner, adding a curious element of natural history to the biblical scene.

The application of hand-colouring, likely added after the initial printing, softens the starkness of the black ink, introducing a palette of muted greens, browns, and deep purples. The inclusion of Latin text at the base of the image serves to identify the specific biblical passage, a common practice in devotional prints of the era intended for both scholarly and lay audiences.

Athena, identified by her helmet and shield, sits beside a loom, while Hermes, carrying his caduceus, stands nearby.

Sadeler, a member of a prolific family of engravers from Antwerp, was known for his technical precision and his contribution to the dissemination of religious imagery across Europe during the late sixteenth century. The composition is divided into two distinct zones: the interior scene where figures gather around a table to prepare the sacrificial lamb, and the exterior view through an open doorway where an angel descends upon the land of Egypt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe artist employs a narrative style common to the period, where multiple temporal moments are compressed into a single frame. The figures are rendered with the elongated proportions and expressive gestures characteristic of Northern Mannerism. The use of hand-applied colour adds a layer of visual clarity to the scene, distinguishing the garments of the participants and the dramatic action occurring in the background. The inclusion of a small dog in the foreground and the domestic details of the interior provide a sense of grounded reality, contrasting with the supernatural event unfolding outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis print reflects the broader interest in biblical illustration that occupied many printmakers in the Low Countries during this era.

The work demonstrates the high level of craftsmanship associated with the Sadeler workshop, which played a role in the visual culture of the Counter-Reformation. The balance between the domestic focus of the foreground and the expansive, narrative background creates a structured visual experience.

This print offers a clear view into the methods of sixteenth-century print production, where collaboration between designers and engravers was standard practice to meet the demand for religious and historical imagery.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Johann Sadeler I","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429324263759,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429337010511,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429337043279,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429337076047,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429337108815,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429337141583,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429337174351,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429337207119,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429337239887,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429337272655,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429337305423,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429337338191,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Levi-and-Juda_Poster_CompositorV1_1786181170495.jpg?v=1786236602"},{"product_id":"jupiter-johann-sadeler-i","title":"Jupiter - Johann Sadeler I","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed sixteenth-century engraving by Johann Sadeler I, depicting the god Jupiter in his chariot above a panoramic terrestrial landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis engraving by Johann Sadeler I depicts the Roman deity Jupiter, seated upon a chariot drawn by eagles. The composition follows the conventions of late sixteenth-century Northern Mannerism, combining classical mythology with a detailed, bird-eye view of a terrestrial landscape.

This cartographic approach reflects the period interest in geography and the systematic classification of the known world. The foreground contains small, anecdotal scenes of human activity, providing a contrast between the divine authority of the god above and the mundane existence of mortals below. The Latin text at the base of the print serves to identify the regions and cities associated with the planetary influence of Jupiter, further grounding the mythological subject in a framework of contemporary knowledge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSadeler was a prolific engraver, known for his technical precision and his ability to translate complex allegorical themes into accessible visual narratives.

The engraving demonstrates a high degree of control in the use of line to define form, texture, and atmospheric perspective. The clouds are rendered with dense, swirling strokes, while the architectural elements of the cities are delineated with fine, sharp lines.

It serves as a record of how biblical narratives were visualised and categorised for a learned audience in the sixteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/johann-froben-the-printer-wallerant-vaillant-1\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eJohann Froben, the Printer - Wallerant Vaillant — Wallerant Vaillant\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Johann Sadeler I","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429357588815,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429376037199,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58429376069967,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429376102735,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429376135503,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429376168271,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429376201039,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429376233807,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429376266575,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58429376299343,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58429376332111,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58429376364879,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Zabulon-and-Issachar_Poster_CompositorV1_1786182012955.jpg?v=1786237245"},{"product_id":"moses-showing-the-tables-of-the-law-johann-sadeler-i","title":"Moses Showing the Tables of the Law - Johann Sadeler I","description":"\u003cp\u003eA hand-coloured copperplate engraving by Johann Sadeler I, depicting the biblical scene of Moses presenting the Ten Commandments to the people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hand-coloured engraving by Johann Sadeler I depicts the biblical narrative of Moses presenting the Ten Commandments to the Israelites. As a prominent member of the Sadeler family of engravers, Johann Sadeler I was active in Antwerp and later Munich, where he produced numerous works based on the designs of contemporary painters.

His posture and the surrounding crowd demonstrate the influence of Italian Renaissance compositions, adapted through the lens of Flemish printmaking. The use of colour, applied by hand to the original monochrome engraving, adds a layer of descriptive detail to the garments and the surrounding terrain. The inclusion of Latin and French text below the image serves to identify the subject matter, referencing the Book of Exodus. The composition balances the verticality of the mountain with the horizontal grouping of the figures, creating a sense of order and narrative clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe print demonstrates the technical precision typical of the Sadeler workshop. The lines are controlled and deliberate, defining the folds of drapery and the textures of the landscape.

The scene captures a moment of collective response, with the figures in the foreground reacting to the revelation with varied poses of reverence and attention.

The composition is divided into two distinct zones: an interior scene featuring the Egyptian court and an exterior view showing the wider impact of the infestation.

The application of colour, likely added after the initial printing, provides a clear distinction between the figures and their surroundings. The background architecture includes a prominent obelisk and arched gateway, elements that place the biblical narrative within a Renaissance interpretation of ancient Egyptian settings. The inclusion of a monkey and a small dog in the foreground adds a sense of domestic chaos to the supernatural event.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work belongs to a series illustrating the plagues of Egypt.
