EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Ruth and Naomi" transports us back in time to a poignant biblical tale. Created by the talented artist Ary Scheffer in the 19th century, this print beautifully captures a scene from the Book of Ruth. The image showcases two central figures: Ruth and Naomi. In this emotional depiction, we witness the deep bond between these two women as they navigate their journey together. Their expressions reveal a mixture of sorrow, resilience, and unwavering love for one another. The intricate details within the engraving highlight Scheffer's mastery in capturing human emotions with precision. The composition is bathed in warm hues that evoke a sense of tenderness and compassion. As viewers, we are drawn into their story - one filled with loss, devotion, and ultimately redemption. This particular print comes from a private collection but was originally created as an illustration for "The Holy Bible" edited by Donald Macleod around 1890. It serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring power of faith and loyalty throughout history. "Bridgeman Images" has once again provided us with an exquisite piece of art that not only celebrates its historical significance but also invites contemplation on timeless themes such as family bonds, sacrifice, and hope.
