EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Ascension of Jesus Christ" takes us back to the 17th century, immersing us in a powerful biblical scene. Created by an English School artist, this print beautifully captures the moment when Jesus ascends into heaven after his resurrection. The illustration is taken from Jeremy Taylor's book, "The History of the Life and Death of the Ever-Blessed Jesus Christ, Saviour of the World" published in London in 1678. It depicts a pivotal event in Christian theology - Jesus' return to his heavenly abode. In this intricate engraving, we see Jesus surrounded by his apostles as he rises towards the heavens. The artist skillfully portrays their awe-struck expressions and gestures of reverence. The image conveys a sense of divine majesty and spiritual transcendence. The fine details and delicate lines bring depth to each figure while emphasizing their devotion to their Lord. This artwork serves as a visual representation of faith and belief for Christians worldwide. With its timeless beauty captured through monochromatic tones, this print transports viewers back to an era where religious art played a significant role in inspiring devotion and contemplation. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we are reminded not only of the historical significance but also how art can evoke profound emotions that connect us with our spirituality across centuries.
