This engraving, titled "Returning from First Communion" takes us back to the 19th century. Created by Philip Richard Morris in 1884, this hauntingly beautiful artwork captures a moment of historical significance. The scene depicts a group of individuals making their way home after receiving their first communion. Dressed in traditional attire, they walk solemnly through a misty landscape, creating an ethereal atmosphere that adds to the overall ghostly impression. Morris's skilled engraving technique brings out intricate details and textures, enhancing the historical context of this piece. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, as he expertly portrays the clothing styles and expressions of each individual. Published as an illustration for The Art Journal, New Series in 1884, this print offers a glimpse into religious practices during that era. It serves as both a visual representation of history and an artistic expression capturing the emotions surrounding such significant moments.
