EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant colour lithograph depicts a scene from the New Testament, specifically The Return from Egypt. Created by artist Harold Copping in the early 20th century, this print captures a moment of biblical significance with exquisite detail and emotion.
In the image, we see a young boy - likely Jesus Christ as a child - riding on a donkey alongside his family as they return from their time in Egypt. The warm colours and intricate brushwork bring to life this pivotal moment in Christian history.
The donkey, an important symbol of humility and service in religious iconography, adds depth to the composition. The African landscape in the background hints at the journey that has taken place, while also highlighting the universal nature of these sacred stories.
Copping's skillful rendering of light and shadow creates a sense of movement and drama within the scene. The expressions on the faces of each figure convey both determination and relief as they make their way back home.
Overall, this print is not only a beautiful work of art but also serves as a powerful reminder of faith and perseverance for viewers today. It is truly a timeless piece that continues to resonate with audiences around the world.
