EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Told us manie strange tales" we are transported back in time to the household of Sir Thomas More. The image, captured by Charles Edmund Brock in 1906, showcases a scene filled with intrigue and curiosity. The composition centers around a meal table where Sir Thomas More sits engrossed in conversation with his guests. A bearded old man, presumably a Jew, captivates the attention of everyone present as he shares his fascinating stories. His animated gestures and expressive face reveal the depth of his storytelling prowess. Surrounding the table is an array of characters from different walks of life - maids attending to their duties, knights listening intently, and even Anne Manning herself observing from afar. The costumes worn by each individual reflect the richness and diversity within Sir Thomas More's household. This engraving not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers glimpses into religious dialogue during that era. It reminds us that storytelling has always been a powerful medium for sharing knowledge across cultures and religions. As we delve deeper into this mesmerizing print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we can't help but wonder about the tales being shared at that very moment – tales that bridge gaps between people through narratives woven with wisdom and imagination.
