EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, titled "RAPHAEL. The Angel Raphael and the family of Tobit" is a stunning representation of an iconic biblical scene from the book of Tobit in the Old Testament. Created by Gustave Doré, a renowned French artist known for his intricate engravings, this print beautifully captures the essence of Raphael, one of the archangels mentioned in Jewish and Christian traditions. In this particular scene, we witness Raphael's divine presence as he interacts with Tobit's family. As described in Tobit 12:15 and 20, Raphael plays a crucial role in guiding Tobias on his journey to heal his father's blindness and protect him from harm. With meticulous detail and masterful technique, Doré brings this sacred moment to life through delicate lines etched into wood. The composition exudes a sense of serenity and spiritual significance as Tobit's family gathers around Raphael. Their expressions reflect awe and reverence towards the angelic visitor who has brought them hope amidst their trials. Through skillful shading and careful attention to light sources, Doré creates depth that adds dimensionality to each figure. This remarkable artwork serves not only as an exquisite visual representation but also as a testament to faith, resilience, and divine intervention within Judaism. Preserved by The Granger Collection in New York City, it stands as a timeless reminder of humanity's enduring connection with higher powers throughout history.
