EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print, titled "The Pharisee and the Publican" transports us back to biblical times with its rich depiction of a scene from the Parable of the Pharisee and the Publican. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is now part of a private collection. The image showcases two contrasting figures standing in front of a grand temple. On one side, we see a self-righteous Pharisee adorned in religious attire, his posture exuding pride and superiority. In stark contrast stands the humble publican or tax collector, depicted as an ordinary man burdened by his sins. This powerful parable from the New Testament explores themes of humility and righteousness before God. It reminds us that true spirituality lies not in outward displays but in genuine repentance and recognition of our own flaws. Through vibrant colors and intricate details, this chromolitho print captures both the physical setting and emotional depth of this significant biblical moment. The composition invites viewers to reflect on their own attitudes towards religion, highlighting Christian values such as compassion, forgiveness, and sincerity. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it serves as a reminder that religious teachings transcend time and continue to inspire individuals across generations to seek spiritual growth within themselves.
