EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 19th century, capturing the essence of Luther's house at Wartburg Castle in Eisenach, Germany. The image, originally published in The Illustrated London News on October 11th, 1862, showcases the remarkable architecture and fortification of this historic dwelling. Wartburg Castle stands proudly against a monochrome backdrop, its imposing presence reflecting both strength and religious significance. This enchanting building holds great importance for Christianity and Protestantism as it was here that Martin Luther sought refuge during his exile in the early 16th century. The engraving beautifully captures the intricate details of Luther's house within the castle walls. Its sturdy structure symbolizes resilience while also serving as a testament to German history and culture. As we gaze upon this print from The Illustrated London News archives, we are transported to a different time - an era when religion played a central role in shaping societies.
