The Canaanite woman (colour litho)
3116768 The Canaanite woman (colour litho) by Drouais, Jean-Germain (1763-88) (after); (add.info.: Matthew 15:25-28
Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me. But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the childrens bread, and to cast it to dogs. And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters table. Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

Matthew 15:25-28 Sie kam aber und fiel vor ihm nieder und sprach: HERR, hilf mir! Aber er antwortete und sprach: Es ist nicht fein, das man den Kindern ihr Brot nehme und werfe es vor die Hunde. Sie sprach: Ja, HERR! aber doch essen die HAondlein von den Brosamlein, die von ihrer Herren Tisch fallen. Da antwortete Jesus und sprach zu ihr: O Weib, dein Glaube ist gros! Dir geschehe, wie du willst. Und ihre Tochter ward gesund zu derselben Stunde.

The Canaanite woman (colour litho)
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that beautifully captures the essence of a powerful biblical story. Based on Matthew 15:25-28, the image depicts a moment of profound faith and compassion between Jesus and the Canaanite woman. In this scene, we witness the woman humbly kneeling before Jesus, seeking his help for her daughter's healing. However, Jesus initially responds with words that may seem harsh - "It is not meet to take the children's bread and cast it to dogs". Undeterred by this seemingly dismissive remark, the Canaanite woman astutely replies that even dogs eat crumbs from their master's table. This exchange highlights both the unwavering faith and quick wit of the Canaanite woman. Her response impresses Jesus so deeply that he commends her great faith and grants her request. Instantaneously, her daughter is healed. The artist Jean-Germain Drouais skillfully brings this poignant moment to life through vibrant colors in this lithograph. The intensity in their expressions conveys both desperation and hope as they engage in this significant dialogue. This print serves as a reminder of how faith can move mountains and how genuine belief can overcome any obstacle. It invites us to reflect on our own journeys of faith while appreciating the timeless wisdom found within biblical narratives.
