Jesus Calling Zacchaeus
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating woodcut print from the "Geistliche Auslegung des Lebens Jesu Christi" (The Spiritual Interpretation of the Life of Christ), created around 1485 in Germany. The print, which is part of a portfolio assembled in 1929, is attributed to the unknown artist, Johann Zainer, and Wilhelm Ludwig Schreiber. This evocative image depicts a pivotal moment from the New Testament's Gospel of Luke (19:1-10), where Jesus, during His travels, encounters the tax collector Zacchaeus, who is eager to see Him but cannot due to his short stature. Jesus, noticing Zacchaeus's determination, calls out to him, inviting Himself to Zacchaeus's home. In this print, Jesus is shown with an authoritative and compassionate expression, extending His hand towards Zacchaeus, who is depicted as a humble, bearded man, clad in a long robe and a turban. The scene is set in a rural environment, with lush greenery and plants surrounding the figures. The intricate lettering and detailed drawing style are characteristic of the late Gothic period. The print's rich heritage is evident in its aged, laid paper and letterpress technique, which adds to its antique charm. This artwork is a testament to the enduring influence of Christian art and literature throughout history. The "Jesus Calling Zacchaeus" woodcut print is a valuable addition to any art centre, art gallery, or art institute's collection, offering a glimpse into the artistic and cultural heritage of the 15th century. Its black and white composition, reminiscent of the biblical era, continues to resonate with audiences today, transcending time and geographical boundaries.
