EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 17th century depicts a powerful biblical scene - Jesus Christ and Zacchaeus the tax collector. The European School artist skillfully captures the moment when Jesus, surrounded by a group of followers, encounters Zacchaeus perched on a tree branch. The composition is rich in symbolism, showcasing both religious and historical elements. The towering trees in the background represent nature's witness to this transformative encounter, while also alluding to botany and natural history as scientific pursuits of the time. The print offers an insight into early 17th-century Christian values and teachings found within the New Testament. It portrays Jesus as a figure of forgiveness and redemption, highlighting his ability to see beyond societal labels such as "tax collector". Zacchaeus' repentance is evident through his humble position on the tree branch. This engraving belongs to an unidentified series of Bible prints published by Pierre Mariette in Paris during that era. Its inclusion in private collections speaks to its enduring appeal among art enthusiasts who appreciate its historical significance. Through this artwork, viewers are reminded of timeless themes such as forgiveness, repentance, and acceptance. It serves as a visual reminder that no one is beyond redemption or deserving of judgment solely based on their occupation or social status. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece for future generations to admire and reflect upon its profound message rooted in Christianity's core principles.
