EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Chretiens mariyrises par Neron" depicts a dramatic scene from biblical history. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this print showcases an illustration for La Bible Populaire, Nouveau Testament (Hachette, 1865). The image transports us to a time when Christians faced persecution under Emperor Nero. In the foreground of the engraving, we witness a group of martyrs being torched alive as they are tied to chariots. Their faces bear expressions of unwavering faith and determination despite their impending doom. The torches held by their executioners cast an eerie glow on the scene, emphasizing both the brutality and religious significance of their deaths. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by early Christians who remained steadfast in their beliefs even in face of extreme adversity. It also sheds light on Emperor Nero's reign and his notorious reputation for persecuting those who followed Christ. The intricate details and skillful craftsmanship showcased in this engraving highlight its historical importance as well as its artistic value. Preserved within private collections, this print offers viewers a glimpse into a dark chapter of human history while honoring the courage and resilience displayed by these Christian martyrs.
