EDITORS COMMENTS
Wilfrid with the South Saxons, illustration from The Church of England: A History for the People by H. D. M. Spence-Jones, captures a powerful moment in history. In this sepia-toned lithograph by Frederick Pegram, we are transported back to the 7th century, where Wilfrid, an English bishop and saint, stands amidst a group of fishermen. The image exudes a sense of reverence and devotion as Wilfrid engages with the South Saxons through his preaching and teaching. His presence commands attention as he imparts wisdom and guidance to those around him. The fishing net draped over his shoulder symbolizes not only his connection to these humble fishermen but also serves as a metaphor for his mission to cast out spiritual nets and bring people closer to their faith. Pegram's meticulous engraving beautifully captures the intricate details of each figure present in this scene. From the expressions on their faces to their posture and gestures, every element contributes to conveying a profound sense of spirituality. This print is part of The Stapleton Collection which showcases historical moments within English religious history. It serves as a reminder that throughout time, individuals like Wilfrid have played significant roles in shaping religious beliefs and practices. As we gaze upon this image today, it reminds us of our own spiritual journeys - how we seek guidance from those who came before us while forging our own paths towards enlightenment.
