EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the late 19th century and introduced to the timeless biblical story of Ruth and Naomi. Created by the talented artist Philip Hermogenes Calderon, this oil on canvas masterpiece depicts a powerful moment between these two iconic figures. Ruth, dressed in traditional costume, tenderly embraces her mother-in-law Naomi as they stand together in the vast Moab desert. The intensity of their love and devotion is palpable through their passionate embrace. Meanwhile, Orpah stands nearby, seemingly torn between staying with her family or following her own path. Calderon's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the vibrant colors of their clothing to the intricate patterns adorning them. This painting beautifully captures not only a significant religious narrative but also showcases the rich history and culture of that era. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the enduring power of faith and family bonds. It serves as a testament to human relationships and our capacity for love even in challenging circumstances. Displayed at Walker Art Gallery since its first exhibition in 1886, this piece has become an integral part of art history. Through Calderon's skillful portrayal and Joseph Bibby's inclusion in "Bibbys Annual 1936" it continues to inspire viewers with its profound message across generations.
