Christianity Dore Gustave Jesus New Testament Pharisee Publican
EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, titled "The Pharisee and the Publican (Luke 18: 11,13)" is a powerful depiction of a biblical scene from the New Testament. Created by the renowned French artist Gustave Doré in the 19th century, this print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing emotion and storytelling through art. In this particular image, we witness two contrasting figures - a proud Pharisee and a humble publican - as they stand before God. The Pharisee, with an air of self-righteousness, raises his head high while listing his virtuous deeds to justify himself. On the other hand, the publican bows down in humility, unable to even look up towards heaven as he pleads for mercy. Doré's intricate details bring life to each character's expression and body language. The viewer can almost feel the tension between pride and humility emanating from their postures. This thought-provoking illustration serves as a reminder of Jesus' teachings on true righteousness and genuine repentance. As you gaze upon this wood engraving by Gustave Doré, allow yourself to reflect on your own attitudes towards others and your relationship with God. May it inspire you to embrace humility over arrogance and seek forgiveness rather than self-justification in your spiritual journey.
