EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Original Altar-piece by Mead in St James's" a remarkable piece of art that depicts the Transfiguration on the Mount. Created by Joseph Manning, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of this miraculous event from the life of Christ. The painting portrays Jesus Christ in all His divine glory, radiating light as He stands atop a mountain surrounded by His disciples. The scene is filled with awe and wonder as Moses and Elijah appear beside Him, representing the Law and Prophets respectively. The disciples gaze upon this extraordinary sight, their faces reflecting both astonishment and reverence. Mead's altarpiece is an exquisite example of his artistic talent, combining pencil and watercolor on paper to create a harmonious blend of colors and textures. This masterpiece now resides at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, thanks to William Jerdone Braikenridge's generous bequest in 1908. As we contemplate this image, we are reminded of the profound significance of faith and transformation. The Transfiguration serves as a powerful symbol of Christ's divinity revealed to His closest followers—a moment that forever changed their lives. Through Manning's skillful interpretation, we are transported back in time to witness this sacred event firsthand. This print not only preserves Mead's original artwork but also allows us to appreciate its beauty for generations to come.
