EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful 19th century print, titled "The Song of the Angels," depicts a moment from the nativity story as told in the Bible's Gospel of Luke. In the image, an angel stands before three shepherds as they tend to their flock in a pastoral setting. The angel's wings are spread wide, and his face is filled with joy and serenity as he delivers the news of the birth of Jesus Christ. The text from Luke 2:10-14 is inscribed below the scene, with the angel's words ringing out: "Fear not, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord." The shepherds, taken aback by the angel's appearance, look up in awe and wonder, their faces reflecting a mix of surprise and delight. The print captures the essence of the Christmas story, with its themes of peace, joy, and the arrival of a savior for all people. The use of soft, muted colors and intricate details in the print adds to the sense of tranquility and reverence. This print, which dates back to around 1872, is a testament to the enduring power of the Christmas story and the role that art has played in preserving and sharing its message through the centuries. Whether hung in a home or displayed in a place of worship, "The Song of the Angels" is a reminder of the hope and joy that the Christmas story brings to people of all faiths and backgrounds.
