EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving captures the historic CONCILIO OF NICEA, a pivotal moment in Christian history. Held in 325 by Emperor Constantine I, this was the first ecumenical council of Christendom. The image shows over 300 bishops from around the world gathered together to establish important rules and doctrines.
During this council, the identification of Easter Day was standardized, and the heretical teachings of Arius and Melezio were condemned. The Nicene Symbol, a profession of faith central to Christianity, was also promulgated during this time. Additionally, temporal powers were attributed to the Pope as a result of these discussions.
The scene depicted in this engraving is filled with religious figures such as bishops and clergy members engaged in deep discussion and debate. The setting is reminiscent of ancient Rome, highlighting both the historical significance and cultural context of this event.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a time when faith played a central role in shaping societies and beliefs. It serves as a reminder of the enduring impact that events like the CONCILIO OF NICEA have had on shaping modern Christianity.
