EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "'Remember Lot's wife'" by William Gibbs, depicts a powerful scene from the Old Testament. The image is inspired by the biblical story of Lot's wife, who disobeyed God's command not to look back at the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah and was turned into a pillar of salt as punishment.
Gibbs' rendition captures the moment of transformation with striking detail and emotion. The figure of Lot's wife stands frozen in time, her face twisted in anguish as she gazes back at the burning city behind her. The stark contrast between light and shadow adds to the dramatic intensity of the scene.
The artist skillfully conveys the moral lesson inherent in this tale – a warning against disobedience and attachment to worldly possessions. Through his masterful use of black and white tones, Gibbs creates a sense of foreboding that lingers long after one has finished viewing this print.
As viewers contemplate this haunting image, they are reminded of the consequences that can arise from ignoring divine guidance. It serves as a timeless reminder to stay focused on what truly matters in life and not be swayed by temptation or material desires.
Overall, "'Remember Lot's wife'" is a thought-provoking work that continues to resonate with audiences today, inviting reflection on themes such as faith, obedience, and consequence.
