EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the early 20th century. Created by Frederick Jasper and featured in Penroses Pictorial Annual 1902-1903, this color print beautifully captures the essence of an Edwardian era family engaged in their religious practices. In this image, we see a distinguished elderly woman sitting comfortably in her home, adorned with a shawl and wearing a cap. Her grey hair peeks out from beneath the headdress as she delicately holds the Family Bible in her hands. Behind her spectacles, her eyes are fixed on its pages as she immerses herself in its sacred words. The scene exudes tranquility and reverence as it showcases not only the importance of religion but also highlights literature's role within society during that time. The attention to detail is evident through every element captured - from the intricate patterns on the woman's dress to the carefully crafted interior setting. Frederick Jasper's artistic talent shines through his ability to capture both physical features and emotional depth within his subjects. This print serves as a testament to his skillful portrayal of human connection with spirituality. Displayed alongside other works edited by William Gamble and published by AW Penrose, "The Family Bible" stands out for its timeless depiction of faith passed down through generations. It serves as a reminder of how religion has played an integral part in shaping our cultural heritage throughout history.
