EDITORS COMMENTS
This stained glass print, titled "Feast In The House Of Simon" transports us back to the Victorian era, where art and spirituality intertwined seamlessly. Created by the renowned artist Edward Coley Burne-Jones in 1885, this masterpiece adorns All Hallows Church in Allerton, Liverpool. The scene depicted is a powerful visual interpretation of the biblical story found in the Gospel of Luke. As we gaze upon it, we witness an intimate dinner taking place at Simon the Pharisee's house. The central figure is a woman who has been labeled as sinful—an outcast from society. Yet here she sits at the table with Jesus himself. Every detail within this stained glass window tells a story. The movement captured in each character's posture conveys a sense of tension and anticipation. We can almost hear their hushed whispers and feel their moral dilemmas unfolding before our eyes. Burne-Jones' artistic style reflects his affiliation with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood—a group that sought to revive medieval aesthetics and storytelling techniques. Through vibrant colors and intricate patterns, he brings this parable to life while emphasizing themes of forgiveness and redemption. As we contemplate this stunning artwork, let us reflect on its timeless message: no matter our past mistakes or societal labels placed upon us, there is always room for grace and transformation at His table.
