EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the image of Myles Coverdale, an influential figure in English ecclesiastical reform during the 16th century. The portrait, created in 1830 by an unknown artist, showcases Coverdale's dignified presence and scholarly demeanor. Myles Coverdale (1488-1569) was not only a Bible translator but also a preacher and briefly served as the Bishop of Exeter from 1551 to 1553. Born in England, he pursued his education at Cambridge University where he studied philosophy and theology. This image depicts him wearing traditional clothing of the time, including a cap and a distinctive headdress. The engraving is taken from "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard, published by Thomas Tegg, R. Griffin and Co. , J. Cumming in London, Glasgow, and Dublin in 1830. It provides us with a glimpse into the historical context surrounding Coverdale's life. Coverdale played a significant role in shaping Christianity through his translation work on the Bible into English. His efforts contributed to making religious texts more accessible to ordinary people during this period of religious upheaval. This portrait serves as a testament to Myles Coverdale's dedication to his profession as well as his lasting impact on British history.
