EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, titled "First Disciples of Jesus" takes us back to biblical times and offers a glimpse into the beginnings of Christianity. Created by German painter Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld in 1860, this print beautifully captures the essence of the New Testament narrative. The scene depicts Saint John the Evangelist and his fellow disciple Andrew as they encounter Jesus Christ for the first time on the shores of Lake Tiberius (also known as Lake Tiberias) in Palestine. The image showcases their occupation as fishermen before their appointment as apostles by Jesus himself. Von Carolsfeld's intricate woodcut technique brings life to each figure, emphasizing their devotion and awe towards Jesus. The composition's horizontal format allows for a comprehensive view of all characters involved, including Peter, another significant figure in Christianity. As we observe this historic moment frozen in time, it is impossible not to be moved by the profound impact these individuals would have on shaping Christian faith. Their canonization within religious texts solidifies their importance within Christian history. This particular print serves as a reminder that even amidst turbulent times like Hurricane Andrew or any other challenges faced throughout history, religion has provided solace and guidance for countless believers around the world. It stands as an enduring testament to faith and discipleship that continues to inspire generations today.
