EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "Lots escape from Sodom" takes us back to biblical times, immersing us in the dramatic story of Lot and his family fleeing the doomed city. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases their skillful use of vibrant colors and intricate details. In this scene, we witness Lot's desperate escape as he leads his wife and daughters away from the sinful city of Sodom. The tension is palpable as they hurry through a chaotic landscape filled with crumbling buildings and terrified citizens. The artist masterfully captures the fear on their faces, emphasizing their urgency to reach safety. One cannot help but be drawn to Lot's wife, who tragically succumbs to temptation against divine instruction. As she looks back at the destruction unfolding behind them, her body transforms into a pillar of salt—a haunting reminder of disobedience. This engraving serves as a visual representation of one of the most well-known stories from the Bible—Lot's escape from Sodom—and invites viewers to reflect on themes such as faith, obedience, and consequences. Its inclusion in SPCK's Bible Picture Book further highlights its significance within religious education during that era. Preserved within a private collection today, this artwork continues to captivate audiences with its rich storytelling and artistic prowess. It stands as a testament to both historical artistry and timeless biblical narratives that continue to resonate with people across generations.
