EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Departure of the banished ministers from Kuttenberg" takes us back to a significant moment in history. This illustration, taken from James Aitken Wylie's renowned book "The History of Protestantism" published in 1878, transports us to the city of Kuttenberg during the 17th century. In this powerful image, we witness a group of expelled ministers leaving their beloved city through its imposing gates. The scene is filled with emotion as both male and female pastors embark on their journey into exile due to religious persecution. These brave individuals were part of Bohemia's Protestant community during a time when the Protestant Reformation was gaining momentum across Europe. As we gaze upon this engraving, we can almost feel the weight of their sacrifice and determination. The composition beautifully captures the unity and resilience displayed by these banished ministers as they face an uncertain future away from their homes and congregations. This historical snapshot serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by those who fought for religious freedom during this tumultuous period. It stands as a testament to human strength and unwavering faith in times of adversity. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, this remarkable piece remains accessible for all to appreciate and learn from. Through it, we are transported back in time, connecting with our past while acknowledging the importance of religious tolerance in shaping our present society.
