In this mesmerizing nocturnal depiction, the prophet Moshe's early moments come alive under the silvery glow of moonlight. The canvas captures the infant prophet nestled securely within a basket, floating on the tranquil waters of the Nile in the heart of ancient Egypt. This act of desperation by his mother seeks to save him from the looming threat of the Egyptians. The stillness of the night is palpably juxtaposed with the anticipated discovery by Pharaoh's kind-hearted daughter, Batya, who would soon embrace the baby, elevating his destiny.
The baby Moshe, cocooned in the soft embrace of moonlit reeds, remains a beacon of vulnerability and hope. Swaddled in luminous white linens, he appears as an emblem of purity and innocence, oblivious to the world's dangers surrounding him.
The artist employs a palette of deep blues and shimmering silvers, capturing the enigmatic allure of the night. The scene is further amplified by the delicate application of watercolors, which dance across the canvas, blending the ethereal beauty of the night with the timeless narrative.
