EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Elijah, Old Testament prophet, raising the widow's son from apparent death" takes us back to a biblical scene of profound faith and miraculous healing. Created around 1860 by an unknown artist, it depicts the powerful moment when Elijah resurrects the lifeless body of a young boy. In this vividly colored image, we see Elijah dressed in his traditional robe, kneeling beside the grieving widow's son. Surrounding them are people representing different generations and genders: men, women, boys, and children. Their presence signifies the unity of humanity in seeking divine intervention during times of despair. The atmosphere is charged with emotion as Elijah fervently prays for God's intervention while everyone watches with bated breath. The woman who lost her son can be seen on her knees nearby; her face filled with hope mingled with grief. This print captures not only a specific event but also conveys timeless concepts such as faith, family bonds, and the power of prayer. It serves as a reminder that miracles can happen even in our darkest moments if we hold steadfast to our beliefs. With its intricate details and vibrant colors typical of nineteenth-century artistry, this lithograph transports us back to ancient Israel where prophets like Elijah performed extraordinary acts under divine guidance. It stands as both a testament to religious devotion and an artistic treasure that continues to inspire believers across different faiths today.
