EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable drawing by Benozzo Gozzoli titled "Drawing of Abraham parting from the Angels". Created in 1845, this piece is part of Gozzoli's larger work called "Story of Abraham and Hagar" which can be found at the Camposanto in Pisa. In this particular scene, we witness Abraham bidding farewell to three angels. The artist's pen and ink technique over graphite on wove paper beautifully captures the intricate details and emotions portrayed in this Renaissance masterpiece. John Ruskin, an esteemed art critic from the 19th century, created this study during his visit to the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford. The image conveys a sense of reverence as it depicts a significant moment from the Old Testament. The composition exudes a timeless quality that transports viewers back to biblical times while showcasing Gozzoli's exceptional skill as an artist. The delicate lines and shading bring depth and life to each figure, emphasizing their angelic presence. This print serves as a testament to Western art history, highlighting not only Gozzoli's talent but also Ruskin's dedication to capturing these extraordinary works for future generations. It is truly an awe-inspiring depiction that continues to captivate audiences with its beauty and spiritual significance.
