embellished giclee print on canvas
24″ x 24″
The original painting Until Shiloh Comes sold in ’93 at the Asheville Art Museum “Christmas Invitational.”
Christ is the Lion and the Lamb. He is the King and the Shepherd. His Incarnation is the subject of Christmas. In this painting a nativity scene is heralded by angels and a rending veil. The scepters / shepherd’s crooks reference The Lion of Judah, who holds a scepter of justice and The Shepherd who guides and protects His sheep. The scepters are high-lighted in gold on the giclee prints making each reproduction unique.
(The scepter shall not depart from Judah until Shiloh comes… Genesis 49:10.)
