EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Jesus calling the Apostles" transports us to a significant moment in biblical history. Created by renowned artist John Hassall, this vibrant print captures the essence of Jesus Christ's divine mission and his profound influence on his followers. Set against the backdrop of the serene Sea of Galilee, Jesus stands at the forefront with an aura of wisdom and compassion radiating from him. His outstretched arms beckon to his chosen apostles, who stand humbly before him. The disciples' expressions reveal a mix of awe, reverence, and anticipation as they respond to their Savior's call. The vivid colors used in this lithograph further enhance its emotional impact. The warm hues symbolize hope and enlightenment while contrasting with the cool tones representing tranquility and spirituality. Through these visual elements, Hassall skillfully conveys both the human connection between Jesus and his apostles and their shared spiritual journey. Originally created as an illustration for "The Light of the World" a children's version of biblical stories published around 1920, this artwork continues to captivate viewers today. It serves as a powerful reminder that faith transcends time and speaks directly to our hearts regardless of age or background. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are invited not only to appreciate its artistic beauty but also to reflect on our own relationship with Jesus Christ – how he calls each one of us individually towards love, forgiveness, and eternal salvation.
