EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of George Whitefield, a prominent figure in the history of Methodism and English evangelism. In this wood engraving from around 1870, we witness Whitefield's unwavering commitment to spreading his message as he fearlessly preaches in the open air. Standing tall with outstretched arms and animated gestures, Whitefield exudes passion and conviction. His powerful speech resonates through the illustration, symbolizing his dedication to Christianity and Protestant beliefs. The 18th-century setting adds an authentic touch to this depiction of one of history's most influential evangelists. The artist skillfully portrays both male and female likenesses surrounding Whitefield, representing the diverse impact his teachings had on people from all walks of life. This horizontal woodcut showcases not only religious ideas but also reflects English culture during that era. With no people present in the image, it emphasizes how Whitefield's courage allowed him to connect with individuals outdoors rather than within traditional church walls. Through this visual representation, we can appreciate the significance of Woodfield's contributions to Methodism while contemplating our own spiritual journeys
