EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history within the drawing room of Selina, Countess of Huntingdon, where the esteemed Methodist preacher George Whitefield is depicted. As chaplain to her connexion, Whitefield stands before an audience of aristocracy and members of high society, delivering his powerful message with passion and conviction.
The scene exudes a sense of historical significance as it transports us back to 1770 when Protestantism was gaining momentum and nonconformist beliefs were becoming increasingly fashionable among the elite. Whitefield's presence in this setting symbolizes the growing influence of Methodism during this period.
Selina, Countess of Huntingdon, known for her devout faith and support of evangelical causes, is portrayed as a patroness of religious reform movements. Her connection with Whitefield highlights their shared commitment to spreading the word of God and challenging traditional religious norms.
Through Mary Evans Picture Library's meticulous depiction, we are given a glimpse into a pivotal moment in British history where religion intersected with politics and social class. This print serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy left by figures like George Whitefield and Selina, Countess of Huntingdon who played key roles in shaping the landscape of Protestantism in 18th-century England.
