EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful engraving captures the tragic event of the burning of Bishops Nicholas Ridley and Hugh Latimer at the stake near the gates of Balliol College, Oxford, on October 16,1555. The image transports us back to a time when religious persecution was rampant and cruelty knew no bounds. In this scene, we witness the two brave Christian martyrs standing tall amidst their impending doom. Their faces reflect unwavering faith and determination as they face their executioners with dignity. The stakes that surround them symbolize not only their physical suffering but also the oppressive forces that sought to suppress their beliefs. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings forth a sense of historical accuracy, allowing us to glimpse into this dark chapter in English history. Every line etched on their faces tells a story of sacrifice and resilience in the face of adversity. As we contemplate this haunting image, we are reminded of the immense courage displayed by Ridley and Latimer in defense of their faith. Their martyrdom serves as a poignant reminder that freedom of belief is not always guaranteed and must be fiercely protected. This print from The Granger Collection serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical artifact, preserving forever the memory of these courageous men who stood up for what they believed in despite facing unimaginable cruelty.
