,,suggestions4 ,illustration3 ,capernaum ,site of ,capernaum1 ,sea of ,galilee4 ,,the ,,use ,,of ,,pictures ,,in ,,teaching4 ,,pictures may hold a primary or secondary place in teaching1 according to their nature and the aim of the teacher4 ,the text itself may be the supreme thing1 and pictures become mere pictorial comments upon the text4 ,pictures when so used have the nature of views or illustrations4 ,the picture at the head of this page is a view4 ,it is reproduced from a photograph taken directly from nature4 ,such pictures are of great value in building up in the mind clear images of objects or of scenes beyond the pupil's reach4 ,a map means almost nothing to a person unfamiliar with the country1 unless by means of numberless views the appearance of the country has been made known to the mind4 ,every teacher in ,sunday-school should have a collection of photographic views of the historical sites of the ,bible1 of implements1 household utensils1 articles of dress1 etc41 which may be used to make clear the ,biblical references to such things4 ,without such illustrations words may convey little or no meaning4 ,the first picture upon the next page may be called an illustration4 ,to a person unfamiliar with the text it might convey any meaning but the true one2 but to one familiar with the story of ,christ and the rich young ruler it is wonderfully graphic and satisfactory4 ,the words of the text take on a deeper meaning as they are studied in the light of this picture4 ,because ,hofmann is an artist1 a man gifted with imagination1 he sees more clearly1 more vividly than the average person4 ,seen through his eyes what was before vague and unconvincing becomes definite and powerful4 ,before seeing the picture the pupil had heard the words3,jesus1 looking upon him1 loved him4 ,now with the picture he sees that ,jesus loves him and is anxious to have him decide for life everlasting4 ,before the poor were abstract2 now they become a concrete reality4 ,before the pupil had been told that the young man had great possessions2 now he sees that he had also health and beauty and intelligence1 greater possessions than land and gold4 ,the ,sunday-school teacher is fortunate who has at his command pictures which illustrate1 which make luminous the text4 ,plates #aa1 #bj1 #cd1 #ci1 #dg1 #fb1 #gj1 #aja1 #ajf1 #acc1 and #adc may be mentioned as notable examples of good illustrations to supplement the text4 ,illustration3 ,christ and the ,young ,ruler4 ,plate #aab4 ,christ and the ,young ,ruler4 ,h4 ,hofmann4 #ahbd- ,the picture itself may be the object of study1 and the text become a commentary upon the picture4 ,for example1 consider this picture by ,holman ,hunt4 ,every detail has something important to say to the pupil4 ,the postures of these people and the costumes say oriental4 ,the profuse ornamentation both of the architecture and the various furnishings speak of extraordinary conditions4 ,this is the temple which was the wonder of the age 7see ,mark #ac3a71 and these are the people who loved to go about in long clothing1 and who devoured widows' houses to be rich4 7,matt4 #bc3ad47 ,this boy with his pure face and far-away-gazing eyes is he who had thoughts about his ,father's house4 ,the look in the woman's face is appreciated in the light of what she is recorded as having said1 ,i have sought thee sorrowing4 7,luke #b3dh47 ,that she rather than her husband should speak to him is no surprise to one familiar with ,matt4 #a3ah-be4 ,the faces of these serious-looking men must be read in the light of the words1 ,and all that heard him were amazed at his understanding and answers4 ,one man has an ornamental box in his hand4 ,what is that for8 ,another has a similar box upon his forehead4 ,why8 ,deut4 #f3f-h and ,matt4 #bc3e will help answer those questions4 ,a man is begging at the entrance4 ,it is not extraordinary in the light of ,acts #c3a1 #b1 and ,mark #ad3g4 ,he begs in vain outside1 while within a servant brings wine to refresh those who will not so much as lift a finger to help the burdened4 7,matt4 #bc3d47 ,beyond the beggar craftsmen are still at work upon the temple4 ,yes1 because when this child ,jesus first visited the temple it was not completed4 ,forty and six years was this temple in building4 7,john #b3bj47 ,birds are flying in and out6 ,yea1 the sparrow hath found a house1 and the swallow a nest for herself1 4 4 4 even thine altars1 ,o ,lord of ,hosts4 7,ps4 #hd3c47 ,the little boy with the fly-driver tells the season of the year1 the light and the few worshippers and the idle musicians tell the time of day4 ,everything has a message1 even the ornament upon wall and floor6 ,that tells whence the ,jews derived their art4 ,this picture is more than a commonplace illustration of a single text3 it is a graphic presentation of an era4 ,the particular event is shown in its historical setting4 ,the picture is a supreme work of art4 ,illustration3 ,finding of ,christ in the ,temple4 ,plate #ce4 ,finding of ,christ in the ,temple4 ,holman ,hunt4 #ahbg- ,if pictures of this sort are to be studied1 every pupil in the class should have a copy4 ,the teacher's business is to direct the pupil to individual observation and inquiry4 ,the perpetual questions should be1 ,what do you see8 ,what does it mean8 ,why is that here8 ,what does it contribute to the total content of the picture8 ,what does the picture as a whole have to say8 ,plates #h1 #i1 #ah1 #be1 #bi1 #cc1 #dj1 #ha1 #hi1 #ic1 #aaj1 #aci1 #aec1 #aei1 and #afg1 might be mentioned among those especially worthy of this analytical and exhaustive study4 ,occasionally pupils will find both interest and profit in the comparative study of a series of pictures4 ,for example take the five plates of ,the ,annunciation1 pages #i and #aj4 ,after the facts have been determined by a study of the text1 the investigation may proceed as follows3 ,what are the essential elements found in all the pictures alike8 ,which artist has told the story most simply and directly8 ,the different artists have emphasized or given special attention to some one phase or phrase4 ,which has embodied more perfectly the first1 or the second1 or the third8 ,which has introduced elements of his own8 ,why8 ,do they help8 ,which has1 on the whole1 told the story most vividly8 ,which most beautifully8 ,a study of this group of pictures in the light of such notes as will be found printed therewith1 will enable any teacher to formulate for himself a plan for studying any other group of pictures4 ,in such study it is essential that each pupil be supplied with a complete set of the pictures to be compared4 ,illustration3 ,madonna of the ,shop4 ,madonna4 ,dagnan-,bouveret4 ,but the picture itself is sometimes not a thing to be consciously analyzed and inventoried2 it is simply a thing of beauty1 its own excuse for being2 it is something to be received as a whole with thankfulness1 like the odor of wild grape vines1 or the form of a calla lily1 or the color of a sunrise1 or the music of wind in pine trees4 ,such a picture is this ,madonna of the ,shop1 by ,dagnan-,bouveret4 ,one may think for a moment now and then of how well the picture is composed1 of how perfect a master of his art the man must be who can make spots of paint suggest wood and metal1 linen and wool1 soft flesh and softer light1 but the mind returns again and again to the contemplation of the wondrous sweet face of the ,virgin1 whose deep eyes see unspeakable things4 ,one comes to love such a picture as a dear familiar friend1 and to yield to its gentle influence as to moonlight upon the sea4 ,the contemplation of such pictures is one of the purest pleasures of life1 a foretaste of the sight of the ,king in his ,beauty4 ,,the ,,great ,,painters' ,,gospel4 ,,the ,,great ,,painters' ,,gospel4 ,illustration3 ,the ,annunciation4 ,the ,annunciation4 ,titian4 ,,the ,,annunciation4 ,the angel ,gabriel was sent from ,god to a virgin whose name was ,mary4 ,the angel said ,hail1 ,mary1 highly favored1 blessed art thou among women4 7,luke #a3bf-bh47 ,mary is supposed to have been in a house of worship at the time 7like ,hannah1 #a ,sam4 #a3i-ah1 and ,zacharias1 ,luke #a3h-ac71 hence the beautiful surroundings2 and to have been at prayer1 as suggested by the kneeling posture and the book4 ,the dove is a symbol

approaches from behind4 ,the picture recalls the experience of another ,mary 7,john #bj3ad74 ,guido ,reni1 ,plate #b11 has chosen the instant when ,gabriel says1 ,thou hast found favor with ,god4 ,the infant angels represent1 perhaps1 the spirits of love1 intelligence and innocence1 #a and accompany the ,divine ,presence because of the words of ,christ1 when speaking of children1 ,their angels do always behold the face of my ,father which is in heaven4 7,matt4 #ah3aj47 ,mueller1 ,plate #c1 seems to have shown the moment when ,mary said1 ,let it be unto me according to thy word4 7,luke #a3ch47 ,his figures and faces express less animation than any of the others4 ,dosso1 ,plate #d1 represents ,gabriel as saying1 ,the ,holy ,ghost shall come upon thee and the power of the ,highest shall
