EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print showcases the renowned figure of Bossuet, a prominent 17th-century French bishop, theologian, and court preacher. Created by artist Richard Woodman in the 19th century, this engraving captures the essence of Bossuet's influential role in shaping political thought during his time. Bossuet was among the first to champion the theory of political absolutism, asserting that government derived its authority from divine origins. He firmly believed that kings were bestowed with their power directly from God himself. This theological perspective greatly influenced not only religious discourse but also political ideologies within France. In this monochrome depiction, we see a distinguished man wearing clerical attire with a crucifix adorning his chest—a symbol of his devout faith. The intensity in his gaze reflects both wisdom and determination as he passionately delivers sermons that resonated with audiences across the country. Woodman's skilled craftsmanship brings out every intricate detail of Bossuet's countenance, capturing an era where religion played a significant role in shaping society. As we observe this print today, it serves as a reminder of Bossuet's lasting impact on theology and politics during the 17th century. This historical artwork is part of "The Print Collector" collection curated by oˇ»De≤µ¿, offering us an opportunity to appreciate and reflect upon one individual's profound influence on religious beliefs and governance systems centuries ago.
