EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 19th century, witnessing a momentous event - the initiation of a French Mason into the esteemed brotherhood. The engraving captures the essence of secrecy and mystique that surrounds this ancient society. A group of men, dressed in ceremonial attire, gather around an ornate throne where the initiate is seated. Their faces masked by smoke emanating from an urn nearby, adding an air of intrigue to the scene. Each member holds a sword with reverence and solemnity as they partake in this sacred ritual. The composition exudes a sense of unity and camaraderie among these individuals who have chosen to embark on this spiritual journey together. The symbolism behind their actions remains shrouded in mystery, known only to those within their exclusive circle. Published in 1867, during a time when secret societies held great fascination for many intellectuals and artists alike, this image serves as both documentation and homage to the rich history of Freemasonry. It offers us a glimpse into their world - one filled with ancient traditions passed down through generations. As we gaze upon this print from Societes Secretes les Francs Macons, we cannot help but be drawn into its enigmatic allure. It reminds us that there are still hidden realms waiting to be explored; places where knowledge is guarded closely by those entrusted with its preservation.
