EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases a collection of penmanship examples from influential men involved in the early translation of the Bible. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into the handwriting styles of these historical figures. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in "The Handwriting of the Kings and Queens of England" by W J Hardy, published by the Religious Tract Society in 1893. Displayed are signatures and documents written by notable individuals such as Thomas Cromwell, William Tindale, Miles Coverdale, Cranmer, Grafton, Vaughan, and Latimer. These men played significant roles in translating and disseminating biblical texts during their time. Their elegant penmanship reflects both their dedication to their work and their high status within society. With intricate details capturing each stroke on paper, this engraving not only provides insight into these men's contributions to religious history but also serves as a testament to the artistry of handwriting itself. The inclusion of French references suggests that these translations had an impact beyond England's borders. Preserved through time with utmost care, this print allows us to appreciate both the beauty and importance of handwritten documents from centuries past. It stands as a reminder that even in our digital age, there is still something enchanting about seeing words crafted meticulously by hand.
