EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled ""She hath wrought a good work", St Matthew, xxvi, 10" transports us back to biblical times. Created by an anonymous English artist in the 19th century, this print captures a significant moment from the Gospel of Matthew. The scene depicts St Mary Magdalene pouring perfume on Jesus Christ's feet as an act of devotion and love. The delicate lines and intricate details bring out the emotions and beauty of this sacred encounter. The artist skillfully portrays Mary's flowing hair cascading down her shoulders, emphasizing her humility and reverence towards Jesus. The title ""She hath wrought a good work"" is taken from the Bible verse itself (Matthew 26:10), highlighting the significance of Mary's action. This engraving serves as a visual reminder of the power of selfless acts and genuine expressions of faith. Originally published in "The Sunday Scrap Book" around 1890, this digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate its timeless beauty today. It showcases how art can transcend time and connect us with stories that have shaped our history. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece for future generations to admire. As we gaze upon it, we are reminded not only of Mary Magdalene's devotion but also encouraged to reflect on our own capacity for compassion and acts of goodness in our lives.
