EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil painting, titled "Elijah raises the widow's son from the dead," is a masterpiece by the renowned German artist Ferdinand Wolfgang Flachner, created between 1807 and 1818. The painting depicts the Old Testament prophet Elijah performing a miraculous act of resurrection. In the image, Elijah is shown kneeling beside the lifeless body of a young boy, with the grieving mother looking on in despair. With a touch of his staff, Elijah brings the boy back to life, as indicated by the boy's sudden movement and the mother's shocked expression. The painting is a powerful representation of faith and the supernatural, with the use of dramatic lighting and posture to emphasize the intensity of the moment. The painting is a testament to Flachner's skill as a painter, and is a valuable addition to the collection of the National Gallery of Denmark (Statens Museum for Kunst) in Copenhagen, Denmark. The image, with its timeless quality, invites the viewer to contemplate the miraculous and the divine, and to reflect on the enduring power of faith and hope.
