The Second Reformation in Germany - Johannes Ronge, 1845. Creator: Ebenezer Landells
The Second Reformation in Germany - Johannes Ronge, 1845. Portrait of Prussian priest Johannes Ronge, principal founder of the New Catholics. Johannes Ronge is the author and head of a schism which has occurred in the Roman Catholic Church in Germany. It originated in the feeling of disapprobation with which many well-educated Catholics regarded the singular spectacle of the exhibition, at the Cathedral of Treves, of a garment, said to be the Tunic of Our Saviour, or the Holy Coat, " without seam, " for which the soldiers at the Crucifixion cast lots, it not being divided like the rest of his raiment. It is stated that a million and a half of people went in pilgrimage to see it. From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in German history - the Second Reformation led by Johannes Ronge in 1845. In this portrait, we see Prussian priest Johannes Ronge, the principal founder of the New Catholics, who initiated a schism within the Roman Catholic Church in Germany. The catalyst for this movement was the exhibition of a garment known as the Tunic of Our Saviour or Holy Coat at the Cathedral of Treves. Many well-educated Catholics disapproved of this spectacle, as it deviated from their understanding that Jesus' garments were divided among soldiers at his Crucifixion. The exhibition attracted an astonishing one and a half million people on pilgrimage to witness it. Ebenezer Landells skillfully captured Ronge's authoritative presence with his quill pen in hand, symbolizing his role as both author and head of this religious reform movement. This engraving originally appeared in "Illustrated London News" in 1845, providing British readers with insight into these transformative events taking place across Europe. Ronge's actions marked not only a breakaway from traditional Roman Catholicism but also represented broader tensions between faith and modernity during the nineteenth century. This image serves as a testament to Ronge's influence and sheds light on an important chapter in German religious history.
