I Am Not Mad, Most Noble Festus: A 19th Century Illustration from the Bible's Book of Acts This image, entitled "I Am Not Mad, Most Noble Festus," is a powerful and evocative illustration from the Bible's Book of Acts, circa 19th century. The scene depicts the Roman governor Festus, as he engages in a heated dialogue with the apostle Paul. Paul, who is in chains, stands before Festus, calmly and confidently asserting his innocence. The illustration, part of the Reuben Luke Collection held by Mary Evans Picture Library, captures the intensity and drama of this pivotal moment in the New Testament. Paul, who has just finished his defense before King Agrippa and Queen Bernice, is now facing Festus, who is skeptical of his claims of innocence. Paul's words, "I am not mad, most noble Festus," are a plea for fairness and justice, a declaration of his sanity and composure in the face of adversity. The illustration also highlights the stark contrast between the two men. Paul, with his serious expression and unwavering gaze, is a picture of resolve and faith. Festus, on the other hand, is portrayed as a man of power and authority, with a furrowed brow and clenched jaw, reflecting his frustration and doubt. This illustration is a testament to the enduring power of the Bible's stories and the ability of art to bring them to life. It invites us to reflect on the themes of justice, faith, and perseverance, and to consider the lessons they hold for us today. Whether used as a decorative piece, a study aid, or a source of inspiration, this image is a valuable addition to any collection.
