EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of history and faith, showcasing Mr. John Woodward, the last surviving member of Robert Raikes' first Sunday School. The engraving, created by an English School in the 19th century, is a testament to the enduring legacy of this significant moment in religious education. Intriguingly preserved within a private collection, this image transports us back to a time when Sunday schools were just beginning to shape young minds and hearts. Mr. John Woodward's presence symbolizes both resilience and dedication as he stands as a living connection to the origins of this educational movement. The illustration was originally featured in "Robert Raikes: The Man who Founded the Sunday School" by J Henry Harris (4th edn, Sunday School Union, c 1890). Its inclusion in this publication serves as a visual reminder of how one man's vision can transform communities and impact generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of the power that lies within education rooted in faith. This photograph not only celebrates Mr. Woodward's contribution but also pays homage to all those who have dedicated their lives to nurturing young minds through Christian teachings. Let us reflect on the profound influence that Sunday schools have had on shaping our society while appreciating their lasting significance for future generations seeking spiritual enlightenment and knowledge.
