EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored wood engraving, titled "The Antipope John XXIII at the Council of Constance" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Ulrich von Richental in 1483, this print captures the essence of the tumultuous times during the Council of Constance (1414-18). Intriguingly, it portrays the controversial figure of Antipope John XXIII (c. 1370-1419) amidst a gathering of influential individuals from across Europe. The artist skillfully depicts John XXIII wearing his papal tiara, exuding an air of authority and power. The scene is alive with energy as attendees engage in intense discussions and debates about matters that would shape the future course of Christianity. This image offers a glimpse into one such moment when decisions were made that would impact religious doctrine and political alliances for years to come. Baldassare Cossa, known as Antipope John XXIII, was both revered and reviled during his time due to his contested claim to papacy. This print allows us to witness him bestowing blessings upon those present at this historic event—a poignant reminder of how faith can be both divisive and unifying. Preserved within the Bibliotheque Polonaise in Paris, France, this artwork serves as a testament to von Richental's artistic prowess and historical documentation. Its vibrant colors bring life to an era long past but still resonating with significance today. As we gaze upon this
