EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of a historic Missal, gifted by King James II to John Brenan in 1894. The Missal belonged to Brenan, who served as the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Cashel during that time. Housed in the prestigious Library of St Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin, this remarkable artifact holds immense religious significance. The intricate illustration featured on this title page is extracted from "A Short History of the English People" an illustrated edition written by John Richard Green and published by Macmillan and Co in London and New York. Dating back to the 17th century, this beautifully preserved piece offers a glimpse into both British history and Christian heritage. As we delve into its monochrome depths, we are transported back to a time when Catholicism played a prominent role in society. This sacred text symbolizes not only devotion but also royal patronage, as it was bestowed upon Brenan by King James II himself. With its Latin script adorning every page, this Missal serves as a testament to centuries-old traditions upheld within the Roman Catholic faith. Through this photograph, we witness an extraordinary connection between religion and royalty - two pillars intertwining throughout history. It stands as a reminder of our shared spiritual journey and how faith has shaped societies for generations past.
