EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Parable of the Pharisee and the Publican" takes us back to the early 20th century. Created in 1910 by Frank Adams, this color lithograph captures a powerful biblical scene from Luke 18:9-14. In this thought-provoking image, we witness two men engaged in prayer. On one side stands a proud Pharisee, his posture exuding confidence and self-righteousness. In contrast, on the other side kneels a humble tax collector known as a publican. The juxtaposition between their attitudes is striking. Through vivid colors and intricate details, Adams skillfully brings Richard Penlake's vision to life. This illustration was originally featured in Penlake's book "A Book of Modern Palestine" providing readers with visual insights into biblical teachings. "The Parable of the Pharisee and the Publican" serves as a reminder about humility and pride within religious contexts. It invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as arrogance, hubris, and genuine faith. As we gaze at this timeless piece of artistry by Ken Welsh from Fine Art Finder, it sparks contemplation about our own actions and intentions when approaching matters of spirituality.
