EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical moment in the life of Saint John of Avila, also known as Blessed John of Avila. In the 16th century, this revered figure found himself accused of heresy by the powerful Inquisition. The illustration is taken from "Mysteres of the Inquisition and Other Secret Societies of Spain" a publication by Victor de Fereal, Suberwick, Manuel Galo de Cuendias in 1845. The image captures the tension and gravity surrounding Saint John's trial. His devout faith and teachings were called into question during a time when religious conformity was paramount. Despite facing such accusations, he remained steadfast in his beliefs and continued to inspire countless followers with his unwavering commitment to Catholicism. The engraving itself is a testament to both the artist's skill and attention to detail. It portrays Saint John as a human figure caught amidst the complexities of Christendom at that time. The vibrant colors used add depth and intensity to an already dramatic scene. This print offers us a glimpse into Spanish history, shedding light on an era marked by religious fervor and persecution. It serves as a reminder that even those who are dedicated to their faith can face adversity but emerge stronger than ever before.
