EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Manchurians (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an engraving by the English School. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in the book "Conquests of the Cross: A Record of Missionary Work throughout the World" edited by Edwin Hodder. The artwork depicts a group of Manchurians, residents of Manchuria in China, during a time when Christian missionaries were spreading their message across Asia. The missionaries sought to introduce Christianity to different cultures and promote its values among diverse communities. In this engraving, we witness a powerful fusion between East and West as Chinese locals engage with these foreign religious figures. It serves as a visual representation of cultural exchange and religious exploration that occurred during this period. The image not only highlights the presence of Christianity in China but also sheds light on how religion played a significant role in shaping societies around the world. It invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as faith, spirituality, and cross-cultural encounters. Through this historical lens captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of humanity's enduring quest for meaning and connection through religion – transcending geographical boundaries while simultaneously respecting diverse traditions.
