EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Saul (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a remarkable piece of art by an English School. Housed in a private collection, this engraving is part of the renowned Old Testament Portraits series illustrated by Cunningham Geikie and published in 1878. The image depicts Saul, a prominent figure from biblical history, known for his transformation from persecutor to follower of Christ. The artist's attention to detail is evident as we witness Saul on the Damascus road with sightless eyes, symbolizing his blindness both physically and spiritually. Through this thought-provoking portrayal, we are reminded of the power and significance of redemption found within ancient scriptures. The Roman soldier turned Hebrew Bible character serves as a reminder that even those who seem lost can find their way back onto the path of righteousness. Furthermore, this engraving invites contemplation on themes such as disability and infirmities present throughout various stories in both the Old and New Testaments. It prompts us to reflect upon our own limitations while offering hope that transformation is possible despite our handicaps or weaknesses. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this digitally cleaned version of "Saul (engraving)" allowing us to appreciate its intricate details anew. This print serves as a testament to the enduring impact of biblical narratives on art throughout history.
