EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the profound moment of the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple, as described in the New Testament. The encounter with Simeon the righteous is beautifully depicted, evoking a sense of reverence and awe. The caption accompanying this artwork reads, "Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word". These words from Luke 2, verse 29 perfectly encapsulate Simeon's response upon seeing baby Jesus. His long-awaited encounter with the Messiah fills him with a deep sense of fulfillment and tranquility. Engraved by W French and featured in Payne's Illustrated Family Bible from London's James Hagger publishing house, this image transports us back to the 19th century when religious illustrations held great significance for many people seeking spiritual solace.
