EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Meurtre sacre commis par les Danites, suivant les recits des Anti-Mormons" transports us back to the 19th century, shedding light on a dark chapter in history. Created by the French School and now part of a private collection, this print offers a glimpse into the controversial world of the Mormons. The image depicts an unsettling scene: members of the secret Mormon group known as the Danites committing what is referred to as a "sacred murder". The engraving was originally published in Le Tour Du Monde in 1862 and has been digitally cleaned for enhanced clarity. As we observe this historical artwork, we are reminded of the power that visual representations hold in conveying complex narratives. It invites us to delve deeper into understanding both sides of this religious conflict – from the perspective of anti-Mormon accounts – while acknowledging its potential biases. Through this print, we embark on a journey through time and space, exploring not only Mormon history but also themes such as travel, exploration, and cultural clashes. It serves as a reminder that art can serve as an invaluable tool for preserving historical events and sparking conversations about our shared past.
