About this Image:

Jesus Christ gestures to the child in an attitude of tender protectiveness, reminding us that whoso…cometh unto me as a little child, him will I receive, for of such is the kingdom of God. (3 Nephi 9:22) The child holds the palm branch, a metaphor for the people of God who must thrive spiritually in the driest part of the wilderness; the righteous shall flourish as the palm tree. (Psalms 92:12) Christ is an oasis in the desert that will nourish and strengthen the saints no matter how desolate the world is around them. The palm is also symbolic of royalty and victory, and was used to celebrate Christ during his Triumphal Entry as the King of Kings. So the palm leaf here can also serve as a reminder that he who would be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven must humble himself as [a] little child. (Matt 18:4)

About the Artist:

JOSEPH F. BRICKEY is an award-winning artist in drawing, painting, and sculpture who currently resides in Orem, Utah, with his wife and seven children. Born and raised in Utah, he has studied art throughout the United States and Europe, pursuing the techniques of the old masters and the wisdom of the ancients to create classical art filled with symbolism. He is a graduate of Brigham Young University and the New York Academy of Art, and he is the director of the art program at the Beaux-Arts Academy, a school of classical art and architecture. He believes that "art should both measure up in the museum and capture the common heart. The greatest art is that which generates the greatest good."
