EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a wood engraving titled "Now When Jesus" from The Four Gospels of the Lord Jesus Christ According to the Authorized Version of King James I, 1931. Created by Eric Gill, this piece is part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection. The image beautifully captures an iconic biblical scene - the adoration of baby Jesus. Depicted within intricate typographic designs and historiated initials, we see three kings kneeling before the infant Messiah, offering their gifts in reverence. This illustration brings to life one of the most significant moments in Christian scripture. Gill's masterful craftsmanship is evident in every detail of this wood engraving. From the delicate lines that form Mary's serene expression to the meticulous rendering of each king's regal attire, his skill breathes life into these sacred figures. The use of typography adds another layer of depth and meaning to this artwork. Each letter and word seems carefully placed within the composition, emphasizing not only its visual appeal but also its spiritual significance. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of our faith but also of the power and beauty found within religious art. It serves as a testament to Gill's talent as well as an invitation for us to reflect on our own beliefs and connection with Christianity.
