EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "Make me teachable, and mild. . " by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century evokes a sense of innocence and humility. The print, part of a private collection, showcases a scene inspired by Matthew XVIII in the Bible. The image portrays a young child with an expression of contentment on their face. Their hands are clasped together in prayerful surrender, symbolizing their willingness to learn and be guided. The vibrant contemporary hand-colouring adds depth and richness to the artwork. The accompanying verse from Scripture History for the Improvement of Youth (Kelly, c 1850) emphasizes the desire for simplicity and detachment from worldly distractions. It reminds us to find joy in what the Lord provides while remaining open-minded and receptive to teachings. This print serves as a visual reminder that true wisdom comes from being humble like a child, willing to absorb knowledge without prejudice or preconceived notions. It encourages viewers to approach life's lessons with curiosity and eagerness. With its biblical theme, exquisite craftsmanship, and thought-provoking message, this coloured engraving is not only aesthetically pleasing but also spiritually uplifting. It invites contemplation on our own attitudes towards learning and challenges us to embrace humility as we seek growth in all aspects of life.
