EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving titled "Sacrifice to God of Kitchen" by the English School in the 19th century. Housed in a private collection, this artwork was originally created as an illustration for G. T. Battany's book "Primitive Religions" published by Ward Lock in 1891. The image takes us on a journey into the realm of primitive religions and offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of Taoism. The scene depicted is one of profound devotion and cultural significance. In ancient China, where traditions ran deep, people would gather to honor their god of kitchen through sacrificial rituals. This act symbolized their unwavering faith and gratitude towards this deity who played a vital role in sustaining their daily lives. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous event that highlights the diversity and richness of religious practices across nations. It serves as a reminder that spirituality takes various forms beyond Christianity, shedding light on non-Christian beliefs prevalent among Chinese communities. As we delve deeper into this image, it becomes apparent how religion can shape societies and influence people's lives profoundly. The intricate details captured within this print allow us to appreciate the beauty found within Asian cultures while also fostering understanding and appreciation for diverse belief systems around the world.
