EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Initiation of a Provost and Judge" offers a glimpse into the secretive world of Freemasonry during the 19th century. Created by an anonymous French School artist, this print is part of a private collection and serves as an illustration for Leo Taxil's book, "Les Mysteres de la Franc-Maconnerie Devoiles" (The Mysteries of Freemasonry Revealed). In this intriguing scene, we witness the initiation ceremony of a Provost and Judge within the Scottish Rite branch of Freemasonry. The men are shown kneeling in reverence, their faces masked with both anticipation and curiosity. The key symbolizes their entrance into the mysteries that lie ahead. The engraving beautifully captures the solemnity and ritualistic nature of this ancient fraternity. It transports us to a time when Freemasons were known for their secrecy and esoteric practices. As they gather in their lodge in France, these men engage in ceremonies that have been passed down through generations. Through its intricate details and skillful execution, this artwork invites us to contemplate the enigmatic world of freemasonry while leaving many questions unanswered. What secrets do these men hold? What knowledge are they seeking? This print serves as a reminder that even though much has been revealed about Freemasonry over time, there still remains an air of mystery surrounding its inner workings. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded that some secrets may forever remain
