EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print, titled "Jesus with the Publican and Pharisee," is an exquisite example of the artistic vision of Gustave Doré (1832-1883), a renowned French artist and illustrator of the 19th century. The image is derived from a parable recounted in the Christian Bible, specifically in the book of Luke (18:10-14), and is a powerful meditation on humility, repentance, and the nature of true spirituality. In the scene, Doré masterfully depicts two men, one a Publican or tax collector, and the other a Pharisee, approaching the Temple in Jerusalem to offer their prayers. The Publican, a man of questionable moral character given his profession, stands off to the side, his head bowed in penitence, while the Pharisee, a religious leader known for his strict adherence to the law, stands proudly at the center, hands folded and eyes raised to the heavens. Jesus, the central figure in the composition, observes the two men with a discerning gaze. Doré's portrayal of Jesus is both compassionate and authoritative, as He imparts a profound lesson to those who would seek to draw near to the divine. The Publican's humility and contrite heart are rewarded, while the Pharisee's self-righteousness and pride are exposed. This print, with its richly detailed and evocative imagery, serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of humility and repentance in the spiritual journey, and the potential for redemption that lies within each of us. Doré's masterful interpretation of this biblical event continues to resonate with audiences today, and stands as a testament to the enduring power of art to inspire and uplift the human spirit.
