EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Shaving The Head - Acts xxi 24, c1924" takes us back to the early 20th century in Palestine. The image depicts a significant biblical scene from Acts 21:24, where men are undergoing purification rites before having their heads shaved. The artists behind this remarkable piece are James Clark and Henry A Harper, who beautifully capture the essence of this religious practice through their detailed illustration. As we gaze upon the print, we can almost feel the bustling atmosphere of a Middle Eastern street as a barber skillfully shaves the head of one man while others patiently await their turn. The image not only showcases an important moment in Christian history but also provides insight into daily life during that era. It serves as a reminder of how deeply rooted religion was in people's lives and how rituals played a vital role in their spiritual journey. This particular print is part of "The Pictorial New Testament" created by James Clark and H. A. Harper for the Scripture Gift Mission and Naval and Military Bible Society in London. Its inclusion in this collection demonstrates its significance within religious literature at that time. As we admire this artwork, let us appreciate both its artistic value and historical context, allowing it to transport us back to an era when faith intertwined with everyday existence on ancient streets like those depicted here.
