EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving by Godefroy Durand, depicting a significant historical event. The scene showcases the arrival of French Huguenot refugees at Dover after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. This powerful artwork, originally published in The Graphic on October 24th, 1885, offers a glimpse into this tumultuous period. The image portrays several ships sailing towards the English coast as they carry these displaced individuals seeking refuge from religious persecution. A crowd has gathered on land to witness their arrival and extend a warm welcome to these weary travelers. The artist pays meticulous attention to detail, capturing the clothing and expressions of both the refugees and those awaiting them. Durand's work transports us back to this pivotal moment in history when France witnessed an exodus of its Protestant population due to political and religious reasons. Through his skillful artistry, he immortalizes their journey and highlights their resilience amidst adversity. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of the struggles faced by countless individuals throughout history who have been forced to leave their homes behind in search of safety and freedom. It stands as a testament to human strength and compassion while also shedding light on an often overlooked chapter in European history.
