EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of stained glass in St Marks, depicting a powerful scene from the New Testament - "the taking of Christ". Created by Joseph Manning, a renowned artist from the 19th century, this watercolor on paper masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK. The image captures a pivotal moment in religious history as it portrays Jesus Christ being betrayed by Judas. The vibrant colors and meticulous details bring to life the anguish and betrayal felt during this event. The stained glass panel depicts not only the act of betrayal but also hints at what lies ahead for Jesus - flogging and ultimately his crucifixion. The skillful brushstrokes used by Manning beautifully convey emotions such as pain, sorrow, and resignation. As viewers gaze upon this artwork, they are transported back to Gethsemane where Jesus faced immense suffering before fulfilling his divine purpose. Donated to the museum by William Jerdone Braikenridge in 1908, this painting serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and spiritual significance. It reminds us of humanity's capacity for both great acts of love and devastating acts of betrayal. Through its rich symbolism and masterful execution, "Stained Glass in St Marks - the taking of Christ" continues to captivate audiences with its timeless message about sacrifice, redemption, and faith.
