Charles Haddon Spurgeon, a renowned preacher and theologian, was born in the mid-late 19th century in Kelvedon, Essex. Despite his humble beginnings, he would go on to become one of the most influential figures in Christian history. This engraving captures Charles Spurgeon's dignified presence as he spreads his message of faith and hope. His powerful sermons attracted thousands to the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, where he served as pastor for many years. In 1874, Spurgeon's dedication to philanthropy is evident through this litho certificate thanking him for a generous donation to the Stockwell Orphanage. He believed in caring for those less fortunate and used his platform to make a difference. Tragedy struck when Mr. C. H. Spurgeon passed away in 1892. This engraving depicts him viewing his own coffin at the Metropolitan Tabernacle before his funeral service—a poignant moment that reflects both his mortality and enduring legacy. During the memorial service held at the Metropolitan Tabernacle, Ira D Sankey sang "Sleep on beloved; sleep, and take thy rest, " paying tribute to Spurgeon's life and work. The engraving captures this solemn occasion filled with reverence for a man who touched countless lives. Spurgeon's impact extended beyond his lifetime as seen in "The Life of Charles Spurgeon" engraving—an homage to an extraordinary individual whose teachings continue to inspire generations even today. As depicted by another striking engraving, Mr. C. H. Spurgeon stands proudly outside the Metropolitan Tabernacle—the spiritual home where he preached God's word with unwavering conviction throughout his illustrious career. At his funeral procession captured by yet another somber engraving, mourners gathered from far and wide—testament not only to their respect for him but also their gratitude for how profoundly he had influenced their lives. The Stockwell Orphanage holds a special place in Spurgeon's heart, as shown in this engraving.
