Original Description
Harold Copping’s The Call of Andrew and Peter is a captivating biblical narrative brought to life through the artist’s signature blend of realism and romanticism. The painting depicts the pivotal moment when Jesus calls the fishermen Andrew and Peter to become his disciples, as described in the Gospel of Matthew. Copping’s meticulous attention to detail—the textured robes, the play of light on the water, and the expressive faces of the figures—imbues the scene with warmth and emotional depth. Painted in the late 19th or early 20th century, the work exemplifies Copping’s skill as an illustrator, known for his contributions to religious and historical subjects, particularly in The Bible Story series. Though not as widely recognized as the Old Masters, Copping’s accessible and evocative style bridged devotional art and popular illustration, making biblical stories relatable to a broad audience.
For home or office decor, The Call of Andrew and Peter suits spaces that embrace a classic or traditional aesthetic, particularly libraries, studies, or entryways where its storytelling quality can be appreciated. Opt for warm, neutral walls or rich wood paneling to complement the painting’s earthy tones and serene atmosphere. A gilded or dark wooden frame would enhance its historical charm. Given Copping’s illustrative approach, medium-sized prints (around 24x36 inches) work well—large enough to convey detail without overwhelming intimate spaces. Pair it with subdued lighting, perhaps a brass desk lamp or a soft overhead glow, to accentuate its contemplative mood. In a modern setting, balance its narrative weight with minimalist furnishings or lean into eclectic decor by combining it with other biblical or maritime-themed artworks for a curated gallery wall.
