Moses and the Burning Bush

German 16th Century

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a city with red roofs and stone buildings stretching across the center, bordered by green landscape below a pale sky. In the foreground, a figure in a red robe stands on a grassy hill, gesturing towards the horizon. Smoke and flames rise from a forest to the right, while sheep graze on a slope. Two figures are to the left near a tall tree. The color palette includes earth tones, reds, greens, and gray, with bold, expressive strokes typical of woodcut techniques.
