EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by William Brassey Hole depicts the iconic moment when Joseph and Mary arrive at Bethlehem, only to discover that there is no room for them at the inn. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this biblical event, transporting us back in time to witness their plight. In the dimly lit courtyard, we see a weary Joseph leading a donkey carrying his pregnant wife, Mary. Their faces are filled with exhaustion and concern as they search for shelter on this fateful night. Surrounding them are camels, adding an air of exoticism to the scene. The stars above shine brightly, symbolizing hope amidst adversity. They seem to guide our attention towards Mary's impending delivery - an event that will change history forever. Hole's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate patterns adorning the animals' saddles to each individual brick in the inn's walls. This meticulousness adds depth and realism to his portrayal. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but feel empathy for Joseph and Mary as they face rejection during such a significant moment in their lives. It serves as a reminder of humanity's capacity for compassion or lack thereof. Through this artwork, Hole invites us into one of Christianity's most cherished stories - reminding us of its timeless message: even in times of hardship and rejection, faith can lead us towards miracles and redemption.
