EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1854 depicts Johann Heinrich Jung-Stilling, a renowned German religious writer of the pietist persuasion. Born on September 12,1740, and passing away on April 2,1817, Jung-Stilling's contributions to literature and spirituality are immortalized in this print by BAorkner, Hugo (1818-97). Jung-Stilling's life story is as fascinating as his works. Originally named Johann Heinrich Jung, he adopted the pseudonym Stilling after his autobiography "Heinrich Stillings Jugend" was published without his knowledge by his friend and fellow student Goethe. The appellation "Stilling" which has stuck with him ever since, originates from the expression "Stillen im Lande" meaning the quiet ones of the country - a term used to describe followers of pietism. In this engraving captured by Bridgeman Images and sourced from Fototeca Gilardi, we see an image that encapsulates both wisdom and serenity. It serves as a testament to Jung-Stilling's profound impact on German literature and religious thought during his lifetime. As we gaze upon this print today, it allows us to reflect on the enduring legacy left behind by individuals like Johann Heinrich Jung-Stilling who dedicated their lives to exploring spirituality through writing. Their words continue to inspire generations long after they have departed from this world.
