The Hidden Treasure
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the 19th century, specifically to the year 1864. Created by the renowned Dalziel Brothers and engraved after John Everett Millais' masterpiece, this image belongs to "The Parable of our Lord" series. Originally published in "Illustrators of the Sixties" by Forrest Reid, it found its way into "The Bookman - Special Christmas Number 1928" courtesy of Hodder & Stoughton Ltd. In this monochrome depiction, we witness a biblical scene unfolding on farmland. A man dressed in traditional attire kneels before an ox-drawn plough as he unearths something hidden beneath the soil. The concept behind this illustration stems from a parable told by Jesus Christ himself, emphasizing the value of spiritual treasures over material possessions. The black and white composition adds depth and intensity to the image, capturing both religious symbolism and agricultural labor intertwined harmoniously. The attention to detail showcased through wood engraving highlights Sir John Everett Millais' artistic prowess. As we gaze upon this timeless artwork, we are reminded of Christianity's profound influence on society during both the 19th and early 20th centuries. This print serves as a visual testament to faith's enduring power and invites contemplation about what truly constitutes treasure in our lives.
