EDITORS COMMENTS
In this oil on canvas painting titled "The Kingdom of Heaven Suffereth Violence" artist Evelyn De Morgan skillfully captures the essence of human suffering and spiritual turmoil. Measuring 139x80.6 cm, this powerful artwork is part of the esteemed De Morgan Collection, courtesy of the De Morgan Foundation. The scene depicted in the painting is filled with a profound sense of age and sadness. Chains symbolize the burdens that weigh heavily upon humanity, while angels hover above, witnessing our collective suffering. This allegorical masterpiece beautifully embodies elements of pre-Raphaelite art, showcasing meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors. De Morgan's work evokes a deep emotional response as it explores themes such as pain and struggle within a religious context. The central figure portrays an angelic being who appears to be experiencing immense anguish or sorrow—a poignant reminder that even heavenly realms are not immune to violence. "The Kingdom of Heaven Suffereth Violence" invites viewers to contemplate their own experiences with adversity and reflect on the universal nature of human suffering. Through her masterful brushstrokes, De Morgan encourages us to find solace in our shared struggles and seek redemption amidst life's challenges. This remarkable painting from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection serves as a timeless reminder that despite our trials, there is always hope for transcendence and spiritual growth amid even the darkest moments.
