EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Among the Mormons" takes us back to a significant moment in American history. Created by Arthur Boyd Houghton in 1871, this print captures the essence of life within the Mormon community during that time. The scene depicted is bustling with activity, as people go about their daily routines on the streets. In the foreground, we see a prominent figure - a bishop dressed in traditional attire, symbolizing his leadership role within the religious community. Surrounding him are individuals from different walks of life; some curious onlookers while others appear more skeptical or even hostile. The composition skillfully portrays the tension between Mormons and non-Mormons (known as gentiles) at that period. The bishop seems cornered by an individual who may represent one such skeptic or scallawag challenging his beliefs. This interaction reflects not only religious differences but also societal divisions prevalent during those times. Through this image, Houghton offers us a glimpse into an important chapter of United States history – one marked by religious fervor and cultural clashes. It serves as a reminder of how religion can shape communities and influence social dynamics. Preserved in private collections for years, this rare print now allows us to appreciate Houghton's artistic talent while providing valuable insights into Mormonism's early days in America.
