From the vibrant colors of Gin Lane to the intricate details in Judgment of Solomon, each stroke breathes life into his creations. As we delve deeper into this captivating journey, a page from Victorian printed scraps unfolds before our eyes. The image reveals a young Berber woman tenderly breastfeeding her baby, symbolizing the universal bond between mother and child. The dedication of King Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem, as depicted in biblical scriptures, reminds us that new beginnings are often marked by grandeur and divine blessings. Similarly, a barn owl nurturing its chicks showcases nature's innate ability to nurture and protect its offspring. Moving forward through time, we encounter Polyptych of Conversano where the Nativity scene takes center stage. This detail transports us back to 1475 when tempera on panel brought forth an ethereal representation of Christ's birth. Fast forwarding to c. 1500 brings us face-to-face with Virgin and Child - an oil painting on wood that radiates serenity and purity. Its timeless beauty serves as a reminder that every newborn carries within them boundless potential for greatness. Venturing beyond European borders, Mexican Indians returning from market captivate our attention with their vibrant watercolor portrayal. Their resilience and resourcefulness remind us that even amidst challenges, new beginnings can be found. Further north lies Eskimaux of Clyde along Baffin's Bay coast - another mesmerizing watercolor capturing indigenous people embracing change while preserving their rich heritage. Finally, we encounter a tapestry fragment depicting Saint Benedict presenting his heart to the Virgin Mary; it represents devotion and sacrifice intertwined with rebirth during the early 1500s. Through these diverse artistic expressions spanning centuries and continents, "Newly Born" unveils how humanity has celebrated fresh starts, cherishing the miracle of life.
