"St John The Evangelist Teaching The New Commandment 'that Ye Love One Another'" is a painting by the British artist Valentine Cameron Prinsep (1838–1904). Prinsep, associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, was known for his historical and classical subjects, often imbued with a rich use of color and detailed representation. This particular work depicts St. John the Evangelist, one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus, who is traditionally identified as the author of the Gospel of John and other New Testament writings.

The painting illustrates the moment when St. John is conveying the new commandment of love, as expressed in the Gospel of John (13:34): "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another." This biblical scene is a significant moment in Christian teachings, emphasizing the importance of love and compassion among Jesus' followers.

Prinsep's portrayal of this scene is likely to reflect his interest in religious and moral themes, as well as his skill in capturing the emotional resonance of such moments. The work would have been executed with the meticulous attention to detail and historical accuracy that characterized much of Prinsep's oeuvre. The painting would also be an example of the Victorian fascination with religious and historical subjects, reflecting the era's moral values and the role of art in promoting them.

As an artist, Prinsep was influenced by his time in Italy and his association with the Pre-Raphaelites, particularly Dante Gabriel Rossetti. His works are known for their vivid coloration and often feature themes of love, beauty, and antiquity. "St John The Evangelist Teaching The New Commandment 'that Ye Love One Another'" would be a testament to Prinsep's artistic legacy and his contribution to Victorian art.

The painting would be of interest to scholars of Victorian art, religious iconography, and the Pre-Raphaelite movement. It would also appeal to those interested in the interpretation of biblical themes in visual art. As a work of art, it would be significant for its representation of a key Christian teaching and for its place within the broader context of 19th-century British painting.
