EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Agapes, Repas des premiers chretiens" takes us back to the early days of Christianity. Created by a French School artist in the 19th century, this engraving beautifully depicts a communal meal shared by the first Christians. The scene is rich with biblical symbolism and captures the essence of fellowship and unity. The image was originally intended as an illustration for "La Bible Populaire, Nouveau Testament" published by Hachette in 1865. It portrays one of the agapes or love feasts mentioned in the New Testament, where believers gathered together to share meals and celebrate their faith. Through this digitally cleaned image, we are transported into a time when these gatherings were not only about sustenance but also served as opportunities for spiritual nourishment and strengthening bonds within the community. The composition exudes warmth and harmony as individuals come together around a table filled with food and drink. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable artwork from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the enduring power of faith and how it can bring people together across centuries.
