EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a chilling moment from history, depicting the brutal persecution of Thomas Hinshaw by Bishop Edmund Bonner in 16th century England. The line engraving, taken from an English edition of John Foxe's "The Book of Martyrs" showcases the cruelty and violence that unfolded during the Reformation era. In this scene, we witness Hinshaw being scourged by Bonner in his orchard at Fulham. The image portrays the harrowing reality faced by those who dared to challenge Catholicism and were labeled as heretics. As an executioner mercilessly whips Hinshaw, it is impossible not to feel a sense of empathy for his suffering. The significance of this image lies in its portrayal of religious intolerance and the lengths people would go to enforce their beliefs. It serves as a reminder of the dark chapters in human history when individuals were persecuted for their faith or lack thereof. Through this photo print, we are transported back to a time where fear reigned supreme and dissent was met with brutality. It stands as a testament to the resilience and courage exhibited by those who stood up against oppression. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this historical artifact, allowing us to reflect upon our past while appreciating how far society has come since then.
