EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Martyrs for True Religion denying the Errors of Popery" takes us back to 18th century England, a time marked by religious persecution and historical significance. The engraving, created by an anonymous English School artist, is part of a private collection. The image depicts a powerful scene from history when individuals stood up against the oppressive rule of Queen Mary I, also known as Bloody Mary. These brave souls sacrificed their lives in defense of true religion and rejected the errors propagated by the Catholic Church. The artwork serves as an illustration for Dr Howell's renowned book "Medulla Historiae Anglicanae" published in London in 1750. It highlights the struggles faced not only in England but also across Europe, particularly Germany. The Germanic region experienced its own share of religious turmoil during this period. Through this print, we are transported to a time when faith was tested and martyrs emerged as symbols of resistance against tyranny. It reminds us that throughout history, people have fought valiantly for their beliefs and principles even at great personal cost. This photograph offers us a glimpse into our shared past and invites contemplation on themes such as religious freedom, cultural identity, and the resilience of human spirit.
