EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Lords Supper in an Anabaptist church" takes us back in time to a significant moment of religious worship and communion. Created by the talented artist Jakob van der Schley, this print captures the essence of faith and devotion within an Anabaptist congregation. The scene depicts men and women dressed in historical costumes, gathered together for a solemn ceremony. The atmosphere is filled with reverence as they partake in the sacred act of sharing bread and wine, symbolizing the Last Supper of Jesus Christ. The image offers a glimpse into the customs and traditions practiced by early Protestants during this period. It showcases not only their distinctive dress but also their unwavering commitment to their religious beliefs. Anabaptism, known for its emphasis on adult baptism and separation from mainstream society, is showcased here through this gathering of worshippers. Their unity in faith is evident as they come together to commemorate one of Christianity's most important events. As we observe this engraving, we are reminded of the power that religion holds over individuals throughout history. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring need for spiritual connection and communal worship. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such intricate engravings as well as the rich tapestry of religious practices that have shaped our world.
