EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph transports us back in time to the 16th century, capturing a significant moment in British history. The image depicts Hugh Latimer, the esteemed Bishop of Worcester, delivering an impassioned sermon at St. Paul's Cross. Latimer was renowned for his powerful preaching style and his ability to captivate audiences from all walks of life. This illustration beautifully captures the essence of his charismatic presence as he stands before a diverse congregation gathered around St. Paul's Cathedral. The scene is filled with energy and anticipation, as people from different backgrounds come together to listen to this influential reformer speak about matters close to their hearts. The crowd surrounding Latimer reflects the religious turmoil that marked this era, with Protestants seeking solace and guidance amidst a changing landscape. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are reminded of the courage and conviction displayed by individuals like Latimer during a time when expressing one's beliefs could lead to persecution or even martyrdom. The crucifix prominently displayed behind him serves as a poignant reminder of the religious tensions that shaped this period. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' meticulous preservation efforts, we can now appreciate this historical gem from our own private collections. It serves not only as a testament to Latimer's legacy but also as an enduring symbol of faith, resilience, and the power of words spoken from St. Paul's Cross centuries ago.
