EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of Korean sketches from the late 19th century, created in the style of Kisan's genre by James Scarth Gale. As a Canadian Presbyterian missionary, educator, and Bible translator in Korea, Gale had a unique perspective that shines through in these intricate illustrations. The detailed sketches depict scenes from biblical stories, reflecting both the cultural influences of Canada and the artistic traditions of Korea. The fusion of these two worlds creates a mesmerizing visual narrative that transports viewers to another time and place. Each sketch tells a story, capturing moments of faith, education, and missionary work with precision and skill. From delicate brushstrokes to bold lines, every detail is carefully crafted to convey emotion and meaning. As we gaze upon these historical artworks, we are reminded of the important role missionaries like Gale played in bridging cultures and spreading knowledge across continents. Their dedication to education and translation helped shape communities and inspire generations to come. This print serves as a testament to the power of artistry and storytelling in preserving history and connecting people from different backgrounds. It is a window into the past that invites us to reflect on our shared humanity and celebrate diversity in all its forms.
