EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts an episode from the New Testament's Gospel of Luke, Chapter XXII, titled "Jesus on the Mount of Olives." The image, created in the 19th century by renowned French artist Gustave Doré and meticulously engraved by Pannemaker, transports us back to ancient Jerusalem during the first century AD. Jesus, portrayed as a man of profound serenity, is shown kneeling in prayer on the Mount of Olives, an iconic location in the Bible where He often retreated for solace and communion with God. The Mount of Olives, with its lush forest and towering trees, forms a picturesque backdrop to this poignant scene. An apparition of an angel appears in the sky, hovering above Jesus, adding an ethereal quality to the moment. The angel's outstretched wings and serene expression suggest a sense of comfort and protection, as if acknowledging the weight of the trials and tribulations that Jesus was about to face. This powerful image, drawn from the Gospel of Luke, Chapter XXII, is a poignant reminder of the human side of Christ and the profound depth of His faith. The intricate engraving by Pannemaker, combined with Doré's masterful drawing, brings this biblical episode to life, allowing us to connect with the story in a deeply personal and moving way.
