EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning image showcases a rare and historic edition of the Authorised Version of the Bible, printed in 1631-1632. Considered one of the most significant works in Western literature, the Authorised Version, also known as the King James Version, was commissioned by King James I of England and completed under the supervision of the Archbishops of Canterbury and York. The Bible was produced during a time of great religious and political upheaval in England, following the English Reformation and the Counter-Reformation in Europe. The new translation aimed to provide a unified and accurate version of the Christian scriptures in the English language, accessible to the general population. The intricately detailed woodcut title page depicts various symbols of the Old and New Testaments, including the Ark of the Covenant, the Lamb of God, and the open pages of the Bible. The central image is the royal coat of arms of King James I, emphasizing the monarch's role in the production of the Bible. The Authorised Version had a profound impact on English literature and language, influencing the development of the English language and shaping the way the Bible has been read and interpreted for centuries. This beautiful and historic artifact is a testament to the power of the written word and the enduring significance of the Bible in Western culture.
