EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "BIBLE: THE CREATION" takes us back to the year 1535, where we witness a woodcut from Miles Coverdale's Bible. The intricate artwork beautifully depicts the six days of creation as described in the Book of Genesis. As our eyes wander across this masterpiece, we are transported into a world where Adam and Eve reside in the Garden of Eden. The woodcut showcases divine elements such as God himself, represented by a halo above his head, creating light and separating it from darkness. Birds gracefully soar through the sky while stars twinkle above an ocean that stretches far beyond our imagination. This image not only captures biblical themes but also reflects influences from both Renaissance and Reformation periods. Miles Coverdale's translation of the Bible into English was groundbreaking during this time, making religious texts more accessible to all. This woodcut serves as a visual representation of his significant contribution to Christianity and literature. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but be reminded of humanity's origin story and contemplate its profound meaning within various faiths like Judaism. It is truly remarkable how art has preserved myths and stories throughout history.
