EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "Confirmation of Dr Longleys Election to the Archbishopric of Canterbury in the Church of St Mary-le-Bow, Cheapside, the Archbishop-Elect taking the Oaths" captures a significant moment in religious history. The image showcases Dr Longley's official confirmation as the Archbishop of Canterbury, one of the highest positions within the Church. Set against the backdrop of St Mary-le-Bow Church in Cheapside, London, this historic event is depicted with great detail and reverence. In this solemn scene, we witness Dr Longley taking his oaths as he prepares to assume his new role. Surrounded by fellow clergy members and religious figures from various denominations, including priests and imams, it symbolizes unity among different faiths. This portrayal emphasizes not only Dr Longley's personal journey but also highlights how religion can bridge gaps and foster understanding between diverse communities. The illustration was originally published in The Illustrated London News on December 6th, 1862. Its inclusion in this esteemed publication reflects its significance within British society at that time. Today, this print serves as a valuable historical artifact that offers insight into both religious practices and societal attitudes towards interfaith cooperation during the 19th century. This artwork from Bridgeman Images invites viewers to contemplate themes such as leadership within religious institutions and interfaith dialogue—a testament to its enduring relevance even centuries later.
