EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Saint John" by the talented artist Albert Robida. The piece, now part of a private collection, beautifully captures the essence of this biblical figure. Intriguingly, this engraving was created as an illustration for "The Gospel according to Saint John" published in 1873. It offers us a glimpse into the life and teachings of one of Jesus Christ's beloved apostles. Saint John is depicted here with utmost reverence, his gaze fixed intently on something beyond our sight. With quill in hand, he appears deeply engrossed in writing - perhaps penning down profound revelations or immortalizing sacred words from his encounters with Jesus. Robida's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his masterful engraving technique. From the delicate lines etched onto Saint John's face to the intricate folds of his robe, each element adds depth and character to this portrayal. As we admire this print, we are reminded not only of Saint John's significant role within Christianity but also of the power and influence that biblical characters hold over our collective imagination. This artwork serves as a timeless testament to their enduring impact on human history and spirituality. With Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder bringing forth such remarkable pieces like these into our lives, we can continue to appreciate and reflect upon the rich tapestry woven by artistry throughout time.
