EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Initiation of a Commander of the Temple" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the secretive world of Freemasonry. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection and serves as an illustration for Leo Taxil's book, "Les Mysteres de la Franc-Maconnerie Devoiles" (The Mysteries of Freemasonry Revealed). In this intriguing scene, we witness the initiation ceremony of a high-ranking Masonic figure known as the Commander of the Temple. Bound and tied up in symbolic fashion, he is carried on a litter by his fellow brethren dressed in elaborate masonic costumes. The rich symbolism embedded within their robes and accessories adds to the air of mystery surrounding this ancient fraternity. The artwork provides us with a glimpse into one aspect of Freemasonry's rituals and traditions while leaving much to our imagination. It invites contemplation about what lies beyond these closed doors and encourages curiosity about the deeper meanings hidden within its ceremonies. As we delve into this image, we are transported back in time to France during an era when secret societies held great fascination for many. This engraving not only captures that historical moment but also reflects elements from various art movements prevalent during that period. Through its intricate details and evocative composition, this print offers both aesthetic pleasure and intellectual stimulation—an invitation to explore further into the enigmatic world of freemasonry.
