EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Burning witches at the stake" takes us back to a haunting chapter in history during the Middle Ages. Created in 1883, this powerful artwork depicts a chilling scene of religious persecution and fear. In the midst of a medieval landscape, we witness men and women gathered around a towering pyre. The atmosphere is heavy with tension as these individuals are accused of practicing witchcraft and sorcery. Their fate sealed by superstition and prejudice, they face an agonizing death by fire. The artist's attention to detail brings forth the desperation etched on their faces - both male and female - as they stand piled upon each other, bound by ropes or chains. This portrayal serves as a stark reminder of how easily fear can lead to mass hysteria and cruelty. Through this monochrome illustration, we glimpse into a time when religious beliefs held immense power over society. It serves as an important historical artifact that sheds light on the dark realities faced by those deemed heathens or witches during this era. As we reflect upon this image, let it be a testament to our progress in understanding diversity, tolerance, and empathy for all people regardless of their beliefs or practices. May it serve as a reminder that humanity has come far from such brutal acts committed in the name of religion or ignorance.
