EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Martin Luther's room in Wartburg, where he sought refuge after his excommunication in 1521. The room is adorned with portraits of Luther and his parents, positioned above the desk that witnessed the translation of the Bible into German and the creation of his most renowned texts. A fascinating detail on the wall reveals an ink stain, a testament to Luther's defiance against evil forces. Legend has it that he hurled ink at the devil who dared to disturb him. The engraving, created by an unknown artist in the 19th century, was published in "Le tour du monde" edited by Edouard Charton and showcases Thuringia, a region located in Northern Germany. This image serves as a visual representation of Luther's journey during this tumultuous period. Leonard de Selva skillfully captured this historic scene through photography, preserving its essence for future generations to admire. With meticulous attention to detail and composition, de Selva brings forth not only Luther's physical surroundings but also evokes a sense of resilience and determination that characterized this pivotal moment in history. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print from Fine Art Finder's collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how one man defied convention and reshaped religious thought forever.
