EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "The Unfriendly Neighbour" is a print from The Bible Picture Book published by Thomas Nelson in approximately 1950. Created by the talented artist George Soper (1870-1942), this artwork offers a glimpse into biblical times. Set against the backdrop of a moonlit night, the scene depicts an encounter between two villagers. Dressed in traditional costumes, they stand outside their humble dwellings, emphasizing the simplicity of life during that era. One figure represents an unfriendly neighbor while the other portrays a visitor seeking friendship. This thought-provoking image invites us to reflect on themes of hospitality and compassion found within Christianity's New Testament teachings. It serves as a reminder that even in ancient times, individuals faced challenges when it came to building relationships with those around them. Soper's masterful engraving technique brings depth and detail to each character's expression, capturing their emotions and adding intrigue to the narrative. The print transports viewers back in time, allowing them to immerse themselves in history through art. "The Unfriendly Neighbour" is not only an exquisite piece but also holds cultural significance as it showcases religious stories passed down for generations. This timeless creation continues to inspire contemplation about human interactions and our responsibility towards one another – lessons that remain relevant today despite being rooted in biblical times.
