Be It Unto Me,” artist Liz Lemon Swindle’s most sought-after edition from The Greenwich Workshop, was the premiere image in what became a definitive collection of fine art editions. Her Son of Man series documents the human events in Jesus’ life from the story of his birth, to the parables and other teaching stories to the miracle of his Resurrection.
Lemon Swindle sees “Be It Unto Me” as a celebration of Mary as much as Jesus. “She was about 14 years old, just a child when told she would give birth to the Savior. But all she said was, ‘Be it unto me’ (Luke 1:38). You have to honor that kind of faith.”
