EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate and powerful Arms of the Stone Masons of Strasburg, a mesmerizing emblem steeped in history and symbolism. Taken from The History of Freemasonry, published in London in 1883, this volume II print is a true testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the English School during the 19th century. The vibrant color lithograph brings to life an array of masonic symbols that have intrigued secret societies for centuries. A striking combination of red hues dominates the composition, drawing attention to two essential tools: compasses and hammers. These iconic emblems represent precision and strength - qualities highly valued by both freemasons and stonemasons alike. The shield-shaped coat of arms proudly displays its German origins while incorporating French influences from Strasbourg. This fusion creates a unique trade emblem that speaks volumes about the rich cultural heritage behind these stone masons' craft. As we delve into this image's details, we are reminded once again why freemasonry has captivated minds throughout history. The square and compass symbolize moral values alongside practical skills - an embodiment of balance between intellect and action. In this remarkable piece captured by Ken Welsh, we witness not only a visual masterpiece but also an invitation to explore deeper meanings within ancient traditions. It serves as a reminder that even today, these timeless symbols continue to inspire curiosity, fascination, and respect for those who dedicate their lives to preserving age-old crafts such as masonry.
