EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in biblical history - the repentance of Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus' twelve original apostles. In this vividly colored lithograph from the 19th century, we witness Judas overcome with remorse as he returns the infamous thirty pieces of silver to his betrayers. The image portrays a deeply conflicted male figure, burdened by guilt and regret. His face reflects the weight of his actions, while his outstretched hand holds the coins that symbolize both his treachery and ultimate redemption. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing forth an emotional intensity that resonates with viewers. Judas' story serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of betrayal and highlights themes of repentance and forgiveness found throughout religious texts. This illustration brings these timeless lessons to life through its powerful imagery. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking artwork, we are reminded not only of our own capacity for wrongdoing but also our potential for growth and transformation. It invites us to reflect on our own actions and consider how we can seek redemption when faced with moral dilemmas. This remarkable piece from a private collection is an exquisite example of religious artistry that continues to captivate audiences today. Its historical significance combined with its artistic beauty makes it a valuable addition to any fine art collection or spiritual space.
