EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The boldness of Peter and John" we are transported back in time to witness a powerful moment from the New Testament. Taken from The Bible Picture Book published by Thomas Nelson, c. 1950, this colour lithograph by Simon Harmon Vedder beautifully captures the essence of courage and faith. Set against the backdrop of a fortress, we see Peter and John standing tall, their costumes reflecting their religious roles as priests. Their faces radiate determination as they confront Caiaphas, the high priest who symbolizes authority and opposition to their beliefs. Despite being prisoners themselves, Peter and John exude an unwavering conviction in their Christian faith. This image transports us to a pivotal event described in Acts within the Bible's pages. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact that Christianity has had on history and religion itself. The scene is filled with tension as these two figures challenge established norms while remaining steadfast in their devotion to God. Through this artwork, Vedder masterfully portrays not only the physical presence of these biblical figures but also conveys their inner strength through subtle facial expressions and body language. This print invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as religious persecution, bravery, and spiritual resilience. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from our Private Collection today, it serves as a timeless testament to the enduring power of faith throughout centuries past - reminding us that even in times of adversity or imprisonment for one's beliefs - true believers will always find solace in divine guidance
