EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating 17th-century print depicting a poignant moment from the Old Testament book of Ruth. The image, created by an unknown artist, beautifully captures the deep bond between the two women, Ruth and Naomi. In the print, Ruth, a young and determined Moabite woman, is shown following closely behind her mother-in-law, Naomi, as they make their way through a rustic landscape. Naomi, her face etched with the lines of age and sorrow, leads the way with a steady gait, her back bent under the weight of her years. Ruth, with a determined expression, reaches out to grasp Naomi's cloak, signifying her unwavering loyalty and commitment to her family. The print is a visual representation of the narrative in the book of Ruth, where Naomi, having lost her husband and sons, encourages Ruth to return to her homeland. But Ruth refuses, declaring her intention to stay with Naomi and care for her. The print captures the essence of Ruth's devotion and the deep connection between the two women, who form an unlikely yet powerful bond. The print, with its intricate details and rich colors, transports us back to a time when the stories of the Bible were brought to life through art. The image invites us to reflect on the themes of loyalty, love, and perseverance, and serves as a reminder of the enduring power of the human spirit. This beautiful print is a treasure for anyone interested in art, history, or the Bible, and a testament to the timeless nature of the stories it tells.
