EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar" depicts a powerful biblical moment from Genesis, chapter 31, verse 45. The artwork showcases the English School's talent in capturing the essence of this significant event. Intriguingly, we witness Jacob himself carefully placing a stone upright to serve as a pillar. This act symbolizes his commitment and covenant with God. The image beautifully portrays Jacob's determination and faith as he establishes this monument. The artist skillfully brings out the details of the scene, highlighting Jacob's resolute expression and his surroundings. The stone stands tall against an awe-inspiring backdrop that adds depth to the composition. This engraving was originally created for publication in The Sunday Scrap Book around 1890 but has been digitally cleaned to preserve its original quality. It now resides in a private collection where it continues to inspire viewers with its spiritual significance. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the timeless themes found within biblical narratives – strength, devotion, and divine connection. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a visual representation of one man's unwavering dedication to his beliefs.
