EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from "The Pilgrim's Progress" by John Bunyan, depicting Christian as he fearlessly enters the Valley of the Shadow of Death. Created around 1910 by an unknown artist, this glass lantern slide was produced by the Church Army Lantern Department, which had an extensive collection of over 100,000 slides at that time. The image showcases Christian clad in a suit of armor, symbolizing his unwavering faith and determination in the face of evil. As he ventures into this treacherous valley, demons and monsters lurk in every corner, representing the challenges and temptations that Christians encounter on their spiritual journey. This allegorical artwork serves as a powerful tool for evangelism during the early 20th century. The Church Army would hire out these slides to be shown to groups across the country or taken on special vans for wider dissemination. It aimed to spread religious teachings and indoctrinate individuals with its evangelical message. The circular shape of this lantern slide adds an intriguing visual element to the composition while emphasizing Christian's cyclical battle against evil forces throughout his pilgrimage. The winged figure hovering above him suggests divine protection and guidance amidst warfare against darkness. As we gaze upon this historic print today, it reminds us not only of Bunyan's timeless literary masterpiece but also reflects on our own personal battles between good and evil within our lives.
