EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Suspension Bridge in Borneo" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a remarkable feat of engineering and the influence of Christianity in remote corners of the world. The image depicts a majestic suspension bridge spanning across a lush river valley in Borneo, an island known for its rich biodiversity and cultural diversity. The bridge stands as a symbol of connection, both physical and metaphorical. It represents the efforts made by missionaries who ventured into uncharted territories to spread their Christian values and teachings. As we gaze upon this print, we can imagine the bravery and determination it took for these missionaries to cross such treacherous terrain in order to reach isolated communities. The presence of this suspension bridge also highlights how religion has played a significant role in shaping societies throughout history. It serves as a reminder that Christianity has not only been confined within familiar borders but has transcended geographical boundaries, leaving its mark on every corner of the globe. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the impact that religious beliefs have had on diverse cultures around the world. It invites us to reflect on our own spiritual journeys while appreciating the resilience and dedication displayed by those who have dedicated themselves to spreading their faith beyond familiar horizons.
