EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 17th-century print, titled 'The Pharisee and Publican,' depicts a scene from the New Testament book of Luke, chapter 18, verses 9-14. The narrative unfolds as Jesus tells a parable to the Pharisees and scribes, who were known for their strict adherence to Jewish law. In the print, we see two men approaching the Temple to pray. On the left stands a Pharisee, a man of great religious piety and pride, with a smug expression and folded arms, reciting his prayers aloud. On the right, a Publican, a tax collector, stands with bowed head and outstretched arms, beaten by conscience and seeking God's mercy. The Pharisee's self-righteousness and the Publican's humility serve as a stark contrast, illustrating the importance of true repentance and humility in the eyes of God. Jesus concludes the parable by stating, 'I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.' This powerful print, created in the late 1600s, serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of humility and the dangers of self-righteousness. The intricate details of the print, from the ornate clothing of the Pharisee to the simple, worn garments of the Publican, add depth and emotion to the scene, making it a captivating work of art and a thought-provoking reflection on the human condition.
