EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - John Calvin on his death bed. The woodcut, created by Jacob Lederlein in the 16th or 17th century, depicts the renowned French theologian during his final moments. John Calvin (1509-64), also known as Jean Calvin or Cauvin, was a prominent figure in the Protestant Reformation and played a crucial role in shaping the doctrine of Calvinism. In this image, we see him lying on his death bed under an ornamental canopy. The somber atmosphere is enhanced by the presence of a skeleton and an hourglass symbolizing the fleeting nature of life. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable, with intricate ornamentation surrounding Calvin's resting place. This photograph offers us a glimpse into history and allows us to reflect on the impact that this influential reformer had on religious thought. Displayed at Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, this image has been preserved for generations to come. It serves as a reminder of John Calvin's legacy and invites contemplation about mortality and faith.
