EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 17th century, immersing us in a prayer meeting of Covenanters. The illustration, originally featured in Our Own Magazine and published by the Children's Special Service Mission in 1885, offers a glimpse into a significant moment of religious devotion. In this historical scene, we witness a congregation gathered outdoors amidst the picturesque countryside. Worshippers are seen fervently praying and engaging in worship as they stand united under their shared faith. The Scottish Presbyterian influence is evident as these devout followers participate in an al fresco prayer session. The landscape surrounding them exudes tranquility and remoteness, creating an atmosphere conducive to spiritual reflection. A preacher stands at the forefront, delivering a sermon that resonates with his eager audience. His presence adds solemnity and reverence to this sacred gathering. This image not only captures a specific moment but also represents an important chapter in history—the era marked by factionalism and the National Covenant movement. It serves as a testament to the unwavering commitment of these worshippers who sought religious freedom amidst challenging times. As we delve into this Victorian-era artwork from English School, we are transported back centuries ago—a reminder of how faith can transcend time and connect generations through shared beliefs. This powerful visual encapsulates both the resilience of those who fought for their convictions and the enduring nature of spirituality itself.
