EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Jotham's Parable" is a remarkable piece of art from the 19th century. The print, part of a private collection, showcases the talent of an English School artist whose identity remains unknown. Created as an illustration for "Keepsake for the Young: A Book of Amusement" by Aunt Friendly (Frederick Warne, c 1880), this artwork beautifully captures a biblical parable. The scene depicted in this engraving transports viewers to ancient times, immersing them in a story that holds educational and religious significance. Jotham's Parable is derived from the Bible and serves as a moral lesson about leadership and accountability. Through intricate details and masterful strokes, the engraver skillfully brings this tale to life. The use of black and white adds depth to the composition while evoking a sense of timelessness. This monochromatic palette allows viewers to focus on every delicate line etched into the print. Bridgeman Images has preserved this extraordinary artwork with utmost care, ensuring its longevity for generations to come. As we gaze upon "Jotham's Parable" we are reminded not only of its historical value but also its ability to inspire contemplation on timeless themes such as faith, wisdom, and responsibility.
