EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a haunting moment in history, depicting men and women being burned at the stake in 1557. The image is taken from an edition of Acts and Monuments by John Foxe, also known as Foxe's Book of Martyrs. These brave individuals faced martyrdom due to religious persecution during the tumultuous period of the 16th century. The engraving showcases the sheer brutality and horror that these martyrs endured for their faith. Flames engulf them as they stand tall, refusing to renounce their beliefs even in the face of certain death. Their sacrifice serves as a poignant reminder of the lengths people were willing to go for their religious convictions. Among those depicted are Margaret Thurston and Agnes Bongeor at Colchester, Essex; Ralph Alderton, James Austoo, and Richard Roth at Islington; and Mrs. Cecily Ormes at Norwich, Norfolk. Each person represents a unique story of courage and unwavering devotion. This artwork not only commemorates these specific individuals but also symbolizes the countless others who suffered similar fates during this era marked by religious turmoil. It stands as a testament to human resilience in times of adversity. As we gaze upon this image today, it serves as a stark reminder that freedom of belief should be cherished and protected—a solemn tribute to those who paid the ultimate price for their faith centuries ago.
