The Philosopher and His Friend at Prayer
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph print from Bibbys Annual, dating back to 1916-1917. Created by the talented artist Gunning King, this artwork showcases his remarkable ability to capture emotions and tell stories through his brushstrokes. In this thought-provoking image, we see two figures engrossed in prayer. The philosopher, deep in contemplation, kneels beside his friend who joins him in seeking solace and guidance. Their expressions are filled with sincerity and devotion as they connect with something greater than themselves. The setting of the painting transports us to a time overshadowed by the Great War. The costumes worn by the subjects hint at the historical context of this period. Through their attire, we catch a glimpse of how society was shaped during those tumultuous times. King's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this lithograph print. From the intricate engravings on their clothing to the subtle play of light and shadow on their faces, he masterfully brings these characters to life. This artwork not only serves as an aesthetic delight but also invites viewers into a moment of reflection and introspection. It reminds us that even amidst chaos and uncertainty, finding solace through prayer can provide comfort and strength. Displayed proudly within a private collection today, "The Philosopher and His Friend at Prayer" continues to be admired for its artistic brilliance while offering us a glimpse into history's past struggles and triumphs
