EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - William Tyndale and the first printed Bible. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases this pivotal figure alongside his groundbreaking achievement. Housed in a private collection, this image offers a glimpse into the past. William Tyndale is renowned for his tireless efforts to translate the Bible into English during a time when it was strictly forbidden. His determination to make scripture accessible to all led him to produce the first printed version of the Bible. This engraving beautifully depicts Tyndale's dedication and passion for spreading God's word. The illustration originates from "Living Pages from Many Ages" by Mary Hield, published around 1888. With digital cleaning enhancing its clarity, this image allows us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic beauty. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are reminded of Tyndale's invaluable contribution that paved the way for future translations of the Bible. It serves as a testament to his unwavering commitment and unyielding belief in making religious texts available to everyone. Bridgeman Images' preservation of this extraordinary moment ensures that we can continue to admire and reflect upon William Tyndale's profound impact on biblical literature today.
