EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the harrowing moment of Ignatius of Antioch's martyrdom, as he is given to the lions at the Roman Colosseum in 110 AD. The wood engraving, dating back to an 1832 American edition of John Foxe's Book of Martyrs, beautifully conveys the intensity and brutality of this early Christian persecution. Ignatius of Antioch, a revered saint and martyr, stands tall amidst a sea of spectators in the ancient arena. His unwavering faith shines through his eyes as he faces certain death for his beliefs. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the discrimination faced by early Christians during this tumultuous period in history. The Colosseum itself looms large in the background, symbolizing both Rome's power and its role in perpetuating these acts of violence against those who dared to follow their own religious path. The presence of a lion nearby adds another layer to this scene; it represents not only imminent danger but also Ignatius' ultimate triumph over death. As we gaze upon this historic engraving, we are transported back in time to witness one man's unwavering commitment to his faith despite facing unimaginable cruelty. It serves as a testament to the strength and resilience that can be found within individuals when they stand up for what they believe in – even if it means paying the ultimate price.
