EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 19th century print depicts a scene from the biblical town of Bethany, a place of great significance in Christian history and tradition. The image transports us back in time, inviting us to witness a moment from the life of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus, the beloved siblings of Jesus. Mary, the younger sister, is shown here in quiet contemplation, holding an open Bible in her lap. Her intense focus and devotion are palpable, as she absorbs the sacred words that speak of her Savior's love and teachings. The worn pages of the Bible, with its intricate decorative borders and gold embellishments, serve as a testament to the passage of time and the enduring power of faith. Martha, the older sister, stands in the background, her hands busy at work in the kitchen. Her practical nature and hospitality are well-known, as she prepares a meal for the many visitors and travelers who would have passed through Bethany. Despite her many duties, Martha's heart is also firmly rooted in her faith, and she is deeply devoted to her brother Lazarus and their beloved teacher, Jesus. Lazarus, the brother of Mary and Martha, is depicted reclining on a couch, his sickly appearance a reminder of the miraculous raising from the dead that Jesus would perform for him. The tender affection between the siblings is evident, as Mary gently touches his hand in a gesture of love and support. This print offers a glimpse into the daily life of these biblical figures, allowing us to connect with their stories and the rich history of Christianity in a profound and meaningful way.
