EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white chalk print, titled "Christ Blessing the Little Children" is a stunning representation of Edward Coley Burne-Jones' artistic brilliance. Created in 1892-93, this piece showcases one of a pair of designs for stained glass windows. The image depicts Jesus Christ surrounded by a group of innocent and joyful children. With tender compassion, Christ blesses each child individually, radiating love and warmth through his gentle touch. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings life to every figure, capturing their innocence and vulnerability. Burne-Jones was an influential member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood art movement in 19th century England. His works often explored themes from mythology, literature, and religious subjects like this one. This particular piece exemplifies his mastery in portraying emotional depth while maintaining a sense of ethereal beauty. The print captures the essence of childhood innocence and serves as a reminder that even the smallest among us are worthy recipients of divine blessings. It speaks to the universal message that love knows no boundaries or age restrictions. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back in time to witness an intimate moment between Christ and these little ones. It is a testament to Burne-Jones' skill as an artist that he can evoke such powerful emotions with just black and white chalk on paper. This print allows us to appreciate Burne-Jones' masterpiece from afar while preserving its beauty for generations to come.
