And the Prayer of Faith Shall Save the Sick,
EDITORS COMMENTS
painted by J. Phillip, is a captivating artwork showcased at the Exhibition of the Royal Academy in 1856. This evocative painting depicts the interior of a Spanish church, where the sincere belief and unwavering hope of the faithful are beautifully portrayed. The skillful contrasts in the picture draw the viewer's attention to the intense focus of the praying figures, their faith illuminated by the flickering candles. The painting, described in the Illustrated London News as a "Cabinet Altarpiece," features a young woman and a mother with their children, all in various stages of prayer. The barefoot figures, clad in traditional Spanish attire, are deeply engrossed in their devotions. The artist, John Phillip, masterfully employs a well-sustained and well-subdued tone of color throughout the piece, creating an atmosphere of quiet reverence. The painting is a testament to the power of faith and the belief that prayer can heal the sick. The skilful depiction of the scene, with its intricate details and nuanced use of light and shadow, invites the viewer to contemplate the depth of human belief and the enduring power of prayer. The painting remains a powerful reminder of the importance of faith and hope in times of sickness and adversity. Harvey Orrin Smith, the artist behind this masterpiece, was a renowned painter of the 19th century. His works, including "And the Prayer of Faith Shall Save the Sick," continue to captivate audiences and inspire reflection on the human condition. This painting is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, religious art, or the human spirit.
