EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable collaboration between Scottish missionary Robert Morrison and his Chinese assistants as they diligently work on translating the Bible into Chinese. Created in 1846, this stipple engraving is a faithful reproduction of an original painting by George Chinnery. Robert Morrison, known for his tireless efforts to spread Christianity in China during the early 19th century, is depicted here surrounded by his dedicated team of translators. The image captures their intense focus and dedication to their monumental task. Each individual plays a crucial role in ensuring that the sacred text is accurately translated into Chinese, bridging cultural gaps and making it accessible to a wider audience. The composition exudes a sense of unity and shared purpose as these men come together across different backgrounds and nationalities for a common cause. It serves as a powerful testament to the power of collaboration and mutual respect despite differences. This print from The Granger Collection not only commemorates Robert Morrison's significant contribution but also pays homage to all those who have dedicated themselves to spreading knowledge, understanding, and faith throughout history. It serves as an inspiring reminder that language barriers can be overcome through perseverance, teamwork, and unwavering commitment.
