EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment when Mary and Joseph embark on their journey to Bethlehem, as decreed by the Roman census decree. Mary, heavily pregnant and seated gracefully on the back of a donkey, gazes serenely into the distance, her hands gently resting on her swollen belly. Her husband Joseph, walking steadfastly by her side, looks protectively at his beloved wife. The rough terrain and harsh winter conditions of December add to the sense of hardship and determination in their journey. The significance of this scene lies in its historical and religious importance. According to the New Testament of the Bible, Mary and Joseph traveled from Nazareth to Bethlehem to register for the Roman census, fulfilling the prophecy that the Messiah would be born in Bethlehem. The arrival of Jesus in Bethlehem marked the beginning of Christianity and is celebrated around the world every December during the festive season. The use of donkeys as a mode of transportation adds to the authenticity of the scene. Donkeys were a common means of transport in ancient times, and their sturdy build and sure-footedness made them ideal for long journeys over rough terrain. In this image, the donkeys carry not only Mary and Joseph but also the weight of history and tradition, making their journey a symbol of faith and perseverance. This print, from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a beautiful and poignant reminder of the story of Mary and Joseph's journey to Bethlehem and the birth of Jesus. It is a timeless image that continues to inspire and captivate audiences, reminding us of the power of faith, love, and determination in the face of adversity.
