EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history, showcasing the remarkable work of William Tyndale, an English translator and key figure in the Protestant Reformation. In this image, we witness Tyndale diligently printing his New Testament at Cologne in 1525, utilizing movable type and demonstrating his exceptional craftsmanship. Despite facing immense opposition from religious authorities who sought to suppress vernacular translations of the Bible, Tyndale's determination prevailed. The following year, a smuggled copy of his translated work was being clandestinely read in England. This act symbolizes not only the resilience of faith but also the power of knowledge and freedom of thought. Violet Oakley's mural beautifully brings this scene to life with her artistic interpretation. It serves as a visual testament to Tyndale's unwavering commitment to making scripture accessible to all individuals through translation into English. This image transports us back to a time when printing presses were revolutionary tools that sparked intellectual revolutions. It reminds us of the bravery and skill required by those who challenged established norms for progress and reform. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded that behind every great movement lies dedicated workers like William Tyndale – visionaries whose efforts continue to shape our world today.
