EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "St Luke, St John" transports us back to the 19th century with its exquisite detail and vibrant hues. The print showcases the artistic talent of an English School artist, whose name remains a mystery but whose work continues to captivate audiences. In this particular illustration from Scripture History for the Improvement of Youth by Kelly (c. 1850), we are presented with two iconic figures from biblical lore: St Luke and St John. Both saints are depicted in a moment of deep contemplation, their expressions conveying wisdom and spiritual insight. The contemporary hand-colouring technique employed in this artwork adds a touch of elegance and realism to the scene. Each brushstroke brings life to every intricate detail - from the folds in their garments to the texture of their skin. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but be drawn into the world it portrays - a world filled with faith, devotion, and divine inspiration. It serves as a reminder that art has long been used as a medium through which religious stories are shared and celebrated. This remarkable piece is part of a private collection that cherishes its historical significance while allowing us all to appreciate its beauty today. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we have access to such treasures that bridge time periods and cultures – reminding us of our shared humanity across centuries.
