Gospel of Apostle Luke, Chapter 22:
61. and the Lord turned and looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, “Before the cock crows today, you will deny me three times.”
62. He went out and began to weep bitterly.
(Only Luke recounts that the Lord turned and looked at Peter. This look of Jesus leads to Peter’s weeping bitterly over his denial)
In the realm of art history, certain paintings transcend time, captivating audiences with their enigmatic beauty and profound meaning. Unique work of art painted in confident brushstrokes by unidentified Master of 19th century in sepia monochromatic gamma enhances the contemplative atmosphere of the early morning twilight. The artist has skillfully translated this profound narrative onto the canvas, which speaks volumes about the themes of faith, devotion and the complexity of human nature. The look of endless sympathy and understanding on Jesus' face towards his repentant disciple, coupled with Peter's expression of sadness and regret, creates an indelible visual impression that resonates with many people. This Gospel scene at sunrise is a testament to the mystical power of art to convey deep spiritual messages and emotional depth.
