EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Jesus walking on the water" takes us back to the 19th century when Gustave Doré's Bible illustrations were highly regarded. The wood engraving, created in 1866, beautifully depicts a powerful scene from Matthew 14:25 where Jesus defies the laws of nature by walking on water. Doré's meticulous attention to detail is evident as he portrays Jesus gracefully striding across tumultuous waves with an aura of divine serenity. The monochrome palette adds depth and intensity to this religious artwork, emphasizing its spiritual significance. The image not only captures a biblical event but also serves as a metaphor for faith and belief. It reminds us that even in life's most challenging moments, we can find solace and strength through our connection with something greater than ourselves. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to the shores of Galilee, witnessing firsthand the awe-inspiring power of Jesus Christ. His miraculous act transcends time and geography, resonating with Christians around the world who draw inspiration from his teachings. This remarkable piece from Ann Ronan Pictures invites contemplation and reflection on our own journeys of faith. It stands as a testament to Gustave Doré's artistic genius and his ability to bring biblical stories vividly to life through his masterful engravings.
