EDITORS COMMENTS
This stained glass print, titled "The Fiery Furnace" transports viewers to a moment of intense biblical drama. Created by the talented artist Edward Coley Burne-Jones in 1870, this masterpiece adorns All Saints Church in Middleton Cheney, Northamptonshire, UK. The scene depicted here is from the Book of Daniel and portrays three Hebrew men named Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These brave individuals refused to bow down to King Nebuchadnezzar's image and were subsequently thrown into a blazing furnace as punishment. However, against all odds, they emerged unscathed from the flames. As one gazes at this stunning work of art, it becomes apparent that there is more than meets the eye. The fiery furnace seems to come alive with movement and energy as vibrant flames dance around the bound figures of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. In their midst stands a fourth figure whose form resembles that of the Son of God himself. This mesmerizing piece not only captures an awe-inspiring religious event but also showcases Burne-Jones' mastery of stained glass techniques within the aestheticism movement prevalent during Victorian times. It serves as a powerful reminder of faith's ability to overcome adversity and offers solace through its depiction of salvation amidst seemingly insurmountable challenges. Alastair Carew-Cox skillfully captures every intricate detail in his photograph print while preserving its historical significance for generations to come. This artwork continues to inspire contemplation
