EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Title-Page of the Great Bible, 1540" takes us back to a significant moment in English history. Created by the talented Master of Francois de Rohan, this artwork beautifully captures an important scene from the 16th century. In this image, we witness three influential figures - Cromwell, Cranmer, and the King himself - distributing Bibles. The print transports us to a time when religion played a central role in shaping society. The men depicted are not just ordinary individuals; they hold positions of power and influence within England. As we observe their actions closely, it becomes evident that they are actively involved in spreading Christianity through literature. This historical snapshot is part of "Social England". Volume III edited by H. D. Traill and J. S. Mann, offering us a glimpse into British culture during that era. The attention to detail showcased in this monochrome engraving allows us to appreciate the intricate design of the title page itself. As we delve deeper into this image's narrative, it becomes clear that it represents more than just religious distribution; it symbolizes a turning point for England as Henry VIII led his country through the Reformation period. This particular print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable historical artifact that sheds light on one of Britain's most transformative periods.
