EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Athaliah and Joash" by J James Tissot takes us back in time to a significant moment in biblical history. This stunning illustration, part of the Book of Kings II, depicts a dramatic scene where Athaliah, the wicked queen mother, discovers young Joash being crowned as king. As we gaze at this masterpiece, our eyes are drawn to the central figure of Athaliah, her clothes torn apart in anguish and her face filled with disbelief. Surrounding her are the majestic pillars symbolizing power and authority. The trumpeters and princes stand beside King Joash as he is anointed ruler over his people. In contrast to Athaliah's despair, all around them we witness an atmosphere of joyous celebration. J James Tissot's attention to detail brings this ancient story to life before our very eyes. Through his skillful brushstrokes and use of color, he captures the essence of this pivotal moment in Jewish history. This artwork not only showcases Tissot's talent but also serves as a reminder of the enduring power that religious stories hold over us. It invites us to reflect on themes such as loyalty, betrayal, and divine intervention that resonate across cultures and generations. Intriguingly layered with historical significance and artistic brilliance, "Athaliah and Joash" is a testament to both faith-inspired storytelling and Tissot's mastery as an artist.
