Further details

JULIUS SCHNORR VON CAROLSFELD, JOB’S COMFORTERS, GRAPHITE, PEN AND BLACK AND BROWN INK, SIGNED WITH MONOGRAM AND DATED 1859

A project which did much to spread the fame of the Nazarene Brotherhood, Schnorr von Carolsfeld’s extensive series of wood engraving illustrations of the Bible, started in the 1820s and first published as a book in 1860, is only rivalled in popularity by Gustave Doré’s, which came out a few years later (S. Seeliger dans Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld. Zeichnungen, exhib. cat., Mainz, Landesmuseum Mainz, and Munich, Bayerisches Vereinsbank, 1994-1995, p. 133, nos. 52-67, ill.). In this scene, the prophet job is comforted by his friends, who have heard of his suffering.
