The Word
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Frederick Cayley Robinson, captured in this vintage print from 1922, transports us to a serene and intimate scene. In a softly illuminated bedroom, we find ourselves in the presence of two generations of women engrossed in their nighttime routine. The elderly grandmother sits comfortably on an ornate chair, wearing her spectacles as she delves into the pages of her beloved Bible. Her face is bathed in the gentle glow emanating from an open window nearby. Seated at her feet is her granddaughter, dressed in a simple yet elegant nightgown and slippers. With rapt attention, she listens intently to the words flowing from her grandmother's lips as they read together before bedtime. The room exudes tranquility and spirituality; it becomes evident that these moments are cherished rituals passed down through generations. Robinson's masterful use of light creates captivating shadows that dance across the walls and floorboards, adding depth to this enchanting portrait. Through his brushstrokes, he captures not only a shared love for literature but also an unspoken bond between these two individuals separated by age but united by faith. This timeless artwork invites us to reflect upon our own connections with loved ones and reminds us of the power found within storytelling and religious devotion. As we gaze upon "The Word" we are reminded that even amidst the bustling world outside our windows, there exists solace within family traditions and spiritual contemplation.
