EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Flagellum or Scourge" transports us back to the 19th century with its intricate details and powerful symbolism. The image showcases a private collection piece that captures a significant moment from biblical history. The engraving is an illustration for F. W. Farrar's renowned book, "The Life of Christ" published in 1891 by Cassell. It depicts a scene of cruelty and scourging, evoking emotions of both sorrow and awe. The central focus is on Jesus Christ himself, who stands at the center of this harrowing event. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the passion and suffering endured by Jesus during his crucifixion. The flagellum or scourge - an instrument used to inflict pain through whipping - serves as a haunting reminder of the brutality he faced. Every line etched into this artwork tells a story; every stroke conveys deep meaning. We can almost feel the weight of each lash as it strikes against Jesus' flesh, emphasizing his sacrifice for humanity's salvation. Bridgeman Images has skillfully captured this profound moment in history through their lens, allowing us to reflect on our own faith and spirituality. This print not only serves as a visual representation but also invites contemplation about our own beliefs and values. In essence, "Flagellum or Scourge" immortalizes an essential chapter from the Bible while reminding us of the enduring power behind religious artistry throughout centuries past.
