EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment of divine revelation experienced by George Fox (1624-1691), the founder of the Religious Society of Friends, better known as the Quakers. Dated circa 1650, the print depicts Fox in a state of deep contemplation as he receives a prophetic vision from the Lord. The inscription above him reads, "Cry, woe to the bloody city of Lichfield!" At the time, Lichfield was a significant city in England, known for its bustling market and grand cathedral. However, it also held a darker reputation as a center of violence and persecution against the Quakers. Fox and his followers were frequently subjected to brutal treatment, including imprisonment, whipping, and even execution for their refusal to conform to the established Church of England. The prophecy was believed to be a call to action from God, urging Fox to speak out against the injustices being inflicted upon his people. This moment of divine inspiration marked a turning point in Fox's life and the early Quaker movement. It solidified his conviction that he was called to spread the message of the Inner Light, the belief that every person has a divine spark within them. The image of George Fox foreseeing the woes of Lichfield serves as a powerful reminder of the courage and conviction of the early Quakers, who faced persecution and adversity in their pursuit of religious freedom. It also highlights the transformative power of faith and the importance of standing up for one's beliefs, even in the face of adversity.
