EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from the early 19th century depicts Peter Waldo, a French religious leader who founded the Waldenses. The image showcases Waldo at the third Lateran Council in Rome in 1179, where he sought confirmation for himself and his followers as lay preachers. Dressed in a distinguished robe, surrounded by bishops and priests, Waldo stands out as a prominent figure among them. The engraving beautifully captures the medieval atmosphere of this significant event. The bishop's mitre atop one of the figures symbolizes their authority within the Catholic Church. As the founder of the Waldensian movement, which emphasized simplicity and piety, Waldo is portrayed with an air of reverence and determination. The composition highlights not only Waldo's leadership but also his followers' devotion to him. They stand beside him attentively listening to his words or perhaps seeking guidance from their spiritual father. This portrayal emphasizes both unity and loyalty within this religious community. Waldo's presence at such an influential synod speaks volumes about his influence during that time period. However, it is important to note that he was later labeled a heretic due to disagreements with certain church doctrines. Overall, this wood engraving offers us a glimpse into an important moment in history when Peter Waldo fought for recognition as a lay preacher alongside his devoted followers amidst ecclesiastical power struggles in medieval Rome.
