EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a powerful biblical scene from the 19th century, titled "Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God". The image depicts Mary and Joseph bringing baby Jesus to the temple 40 days after his birth. Simeon, an elderly man known for his prophecy, blesses them as he holds the infant Christ in his arms. In this moment of divine significance, Simeon utters words of praise: "Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word". His prophetic declaration foretells that Jesus will be a catalyst for both the fall and rising of many in Israel. The composition is enhanced by architectural elements reminiscent of St Peter's Basilica in Rome. These grand columns serve as a backdrop to this sacred encounter between generations - representing faith passed down through time. J Jenkins skillfully engraved this scene based on Louis de Boullogne the younger's painting from 1715. The black-and-white aesthetic adds depth and solemnity to the image while emphasizing its historical context. This print not only showcases religious devotion but also explores themes of family, fatherhood, and belief. It serves as a visual reminder of the profound impact one child can have on countless lives throughout history.
