The Prayer of Amos
Scriptural Text Reference: Amos 7:2

black ink on light blue stock, decorated with blue gouache and raised burnished gold

8 1/2" X 11"

This calligraphy came to light some thirty-five years after Harvey Guthrie brought the text to the attention of his students of the Hebrew Bible at the Episcopal Divinity School, Cambridge, MA in 1962. Professor Guthrie commended it as a prayer of Jews in the Holocaust; I consider myself privileged to present it devotionally as well as artistically.

La Oracion de Amos
Referencia al texto de las Escrituras: Amos 7:2

Tinta negra sobre azul cielo, decorado cvn azul guache en un dorado en realce

Esta caligraffa salio a la luz, aproximadamente 35 anos despues que Harvey Guthrie presento el texto a sus estudiantes de la Biblia Hebrea. Sucedio esto en la Escuela Episcopal de la Divinidad en 1962 en Cambridge, MA. El profesor Guthrie, la recomendaba como oracion para los Judios en tiempos del Holocausto; considero un privilegiado al poder presentarla tanto en forma devocional como artistica.
