The Leopard and the Lamb
2015
Print on Paper

"The Leopard and Lamb" by Banksy is a compelling piece that fuses biblical symbolism with the artist’s sharp socio-political commentary. Displayed at the Walled-Off Hotel in Bethlehem, just steps from the separation wall, the artwork captures a rare moment of tranquility. A leopard rests peacefully beside a lamb, echoing the prophetic vision from Isaiah 11:6: “The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat.” This powerful imagery not only deepens the biblical message of harmony among natural adversaries but also offers a quiet yet poignant critique of war and division—inviting viewers to reflect on the enduring hope for peace.
