| 總結: | This article explores the life and works of the English painter, Samuel Colman (1780-1845) and his wife, Mary Colman née Cayme. It considers the context of their faith, as part of the Nonconformist tradition in south west England (principally in Yeovil, Somerset and Bristol city) during the early to midnineteenth century. Colman was an active artist working in Bristol for over twenty years, before moving to London where his works were exhibited at the Royal Academy. Samuel and Mary came from a long line of Nonconformists, who worshipped at Congregational Churches in England. The article also considers aspects of the family history, social context and ecclesiastical settings. His paintings resonate with a many of the important themes of religion and public life through the eyes of a Nonconformist Christian in the early nineteenth century. The themes tackle topics (either directly or tacitly) such as public order and morality, the slave trade, women's rights, faith and works, Jesus as the true light, evangelism, salvation and trade and commerce. |
