EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Sowing good seed, Sowing tares, In the far country, The prodigals return" by English School in the 19th century tells a profound biblical story. The artwork depicts various scenes that beautifully illustrate different aspects of this timeless tale. In the foreground, we see a figure diligently sowing seeds into fertile soil, symbolizing the act of spreading goodness and righteousness. However, juxtaposed against this scene is another where tares or weeds are being sown among the crops. This serves as a reminder that evil can infiltrate even the most virtuous intentions. Moving towards the background, we witness an intriguing depiction of a distant country where one can imagine temptation and waywardness prevailing. It represents how individuals may stray from their righteous path when lured by worldly desires and pleasures. Yet hope remains within this narrative as it concludes with "The prodigal's return". Here we witness a powerful moment of redemption and forgiveness as a lost soul finds his way back to his loving family after realizing his mistakes. Overall, this engraving encapsulates significant themes such as faithfulness versus temptation, consequences versus redemption - all drawn from biblical teachings. Its intricate details and masterful execution make it not only visually stunning but also thought-provoking for those who contemplate its message.
