Woman, behold thy son! Son, behold thy mother!

John 19:26-27
Vaurs 374

In this powerful engraving the fallen tree of the knowledge of 

good and evil lies broken and uprooted, like the forked 

tongue of the serpent at the foot of the Cross while in glorious 

contrast, the Easter lilies, like the dawn of Easter,  

rise from earth to heaven proclaiming the victory Christ has won.
