EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled ""They entered the Pagan City with heads erect. . . . chanting the Litany"" transports us to a moment of profound significance. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 20th century, this print captures a scene from H D M Spence's book "The Church of England" published in 1905. In this visually striking image, we witness a group of individuals entering a Pagan City with unwavering determination and confidence. Their heads held high, they chant the Litany, their voices resonating through the air. The atmosphere is charged with spiritual energy as these devout followers embark on their mission. This artwork serves as a powerful reminder of St Augustine's journey to Canterbury during his mission to convert pagan inhabitants to Christianity. The artist skillfully depicts both the awe-inspiring architecture of the city and its inhabitants' curiosity towards these newcomers. Through meticulous digital cleaning, Bridgeman Images has enhanced this historical masterpiece for our enjoyment today. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are transported back in time and invited to reflect on themes such as faith, resilience, and cultural exchange. This print not only showcases artistic excellence but also provides valuable insight into religious history and intercultural dialogue.
