Hand-Colored Photogravure – Ruth and Naomi by Felix Rosenstiel after P.H. Calderon (1880–1895)

This exquisite hand-colored photogravure, titled Ruth and Naomi, is a rare and beautifully preserved piece published by Felix Rosenstiel (active 1880–1895), based on the original painting by renowned British artist Philip Hermogenes Calderon (1833–1898), a member of the Royal Academy.

Printed in England between 1880 and 1895, this work captures a moving biblical scene from the Book of Ruth, rendered with exceptional detail and sensitivity. The powerful scriptural quote beneath the image reads:

"Entreat me not to leave thee; whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge; thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God. – Ruth i.16"
