EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "National Institution of the Fine Arts" takes us back to a bygone era when art and religion intertwined harmoniously. Created by Alfred Borron Clay in 1856, this print showcases a picturesque rural scene that transports us to the idyllic countryside. In this enchanting artwork, we see a group of people crossing a ford on horseback during the summer season. The horses, ranging from majestic racehorses to sturdy shire horses and gentle ponies, add life and movement to the composition. Their presence symbolizes not only transport but also represents various aspects of Christian values such as strength, gracefulness, and loyalty. The setting itself exudes tranquility as it depicts Bethany, a place closely associated with Jesus Christ's visits during his time on Earth. This religious connection adds depth to the image and invites contemplation about faith and spirituality. As we delve into this engraving further, we are reminded of the significance of religious art in society. It serves as an avenue for individuals to connect with their beliefs while appreciating beauty through visual representation. The National Institution of the Fine Arts stands tall as an embodiment of these ideals. Through its intricate details and skillful execution by Clay, this print captures both nature's serenity and humanity's quest for spiritual fulfillment. It is truly an exquisite piece that resonates with those who appreciate fine art steeped in religious symbolism.
