EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "St. Peter Sinking in the Sea of Tiberias" by Edward Burne-Jones showcases the artist's exceptional talent and attention to detail. This masterpiece, created using gouache, watercolour, pen and black and brown ink over traces of chalk, measures an impressive 107.9x35.5 cm. The artwork depicts a dramatic scene from biblical times when St. Peter finds himself sinking into the sea after losing faith while attempting to walk on water towards Jesus Christ. The composition beautifully captures the turmoil and desperation on St. Peter's face as he reaches out for help amidst crashing waves. Burne-Jones' meticulous brushwork brings this religious narrative to life with vibrant colors and intricate textures that highlight his mastery of various mediums. The design was originally intended for a stained glass window commissioned by James Powell & Sons, a renowned glass firm. This image evokes a sense of awe and reverence as it transports viewers back in time to witness this pivotal moment in Christian history firsthand. It serves as a reminder of the power of faith but also explores themes such as doubt, redemption, and human vulnerability. With its rich symbolism and profound emotional depth, "St. Peter Sinking in the Sea of Tiberias" stands as a testament to Burne-Jones' artistic brilliance within the context of Victorian art movement known as Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
