EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Rebecca and Eliezer at the well" transports us back to biblical times. The artwork, created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, depicts a scene from the Book of Genesis in vivid color and detail. In this illustration, we see Rebecca, a woman of Hebrew descent, standing gracefully beside a well. She is accompanied by Eliezer, who holds a jar filled with water. The image beautifully captures their encounter as described in the Old Testament. The composition exudes tranquility and symbolism. The four elements - earth, air, fire, and water - are represented through the figures' connection to nature and their surroundings. Rebecca's elegant attire reflects her virtuous character while Eliezer's presence signifies his role as Abraham's servant. The lithograph showcases intricate details such as the ship sailing on distant waters symbolizing transport or journeying through life. It also highlights various religious themes associated with Judaism and Christianity. This print was originally featured in Bubbles magazine edited by Dr Barnardo around 1895. Its inclusion in this publication aimed to educate children about Old Testament stories like Rebecca and Eliezer at the well. Now preserved within a private collection but made accessible through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this chromolitho print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a window into ancient biblical narratives that continue to inspire faith today.
