EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a scene from Brazil in 1820, depicting the mission of the Jesuites. The image is part of "The old and modern costume" by Ferrario, published in Milan between 1819 and 1820. Created by an unknown artist from the 19th century, this engraving captures a significant moment in history. In this mesmerizing landscape, we witness the profound impact of religion on Brazilian society during that time. The Jesuites were renowned for their missionary work, spreading Christianity across South America. This particular mission highlights their efforts to evangelize and bring spiritual enlightenment to the people of Brazil. The composition exudes tranquility as it portrays a serene natural setting with lush vegetation and gently flowing waters. Amidst this picturesque backdrop stands a group of Bresilienne natives engaging with Jesuit missionaries who have arrived to share their faith. The print serves as a testament to both cultural exchange and religious devotion. It offers us a glimpse into an era when exploration and evangelization went hand in hand, shaping the destiny of nations like Brazil. Preserved within private collections today, this artwork continues to inspire curiosity about our shared past while reminding us of the transformative power that religion holds over societies throughout history.
