EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative illustration, titled "Pilgrim Setts Forth," is taken from Wynkyn de Worde's publication of "The Way to the Holy Lande," printed in London in 1500. The image captures the moment of departure for a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, a journey that was both a spiritual and physical endeavor for many Europeans during the late medieval period. The pilgrim in the illustration is depicted as a humble figure, barefoot and carrying a small pouch or bag slung over one shoulder, while in his hand he holds a string of prayer beads. His expression is one of determination and devotion, as he sets forth on his long and arduous journey. The landscape behind him suggests the rolling hills and open countryside of England, while the distant horizon hints at the vastness of the journey that lies ahead. The image is a poignant reminder of the deep religious fervor that motivated people to undertake such pilgrimages, often at great personal risk and expense. The pilgrimage to the Holy Land was believed to offer the opportunity for spiritual renewal and forgiveness of sins, and was a way for individuals to connect with the sacred sites of Christianity and reaffirm their faith. The illustration also speaks to the broader historical context of the late medieval period, a time of intense religious and cultural activity in Europe. The proliferation of printed books, including religious texts and guides for pilgrims, helped to spread knowledge and ideas, and facilitated the growth of a culture of literacy and learning. Overall, this image of a pilgrim setting forth on his journey is a powerful reminder of the enduring human desire for spiritual connection and the role that art and literature played in shaping religious expression during the late medieval period.
