Illuminated Parable - The Tares
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating artwork created by American artists Robert Stewart and James Gross in the 1930s. This unique piece, now held in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the 20th century. The artwork is a photograph with intricate felt tip pen details, adding an unexpected layer of complexity to the image. At its core, "Illuminated Parable: The Tares" is a visual interpretation of the biblical parable from the New Testament of the Christian faith, as told in the Gospel of Matthew (13:24-30). The parable describes a farmer who sows good seed in his field, but his enemy comes and sows tares among the wheat. The tares, or weeds, grow up alongside the wheat, making it difficult to distinguish between the two until the harvest. In this artwork, Stewart and Gross bring the parable to life through an intricate floral design, with multicolored blooms representing both the wheat and the tares. The title "Illuminated Parable: The Tares" highlights the illuminated manuscript tradition, which was popular during the Middle Ages for its decorative and artistic qualities. The artists' use of felt tip pen adds a modern twist to this ancient art form, creating a visually striking and thought-provoking piece that continues to captivate viewers today. As an index of American design, "Illuminated Parable: The Tares" is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, showcasing the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the 1930s. Its intricate design, religious significance, and historical context make it a must-see for art enthusiasts, scholars, and anyone interested in the intersection of art, religion, and American culture.
