1792 1834 Clergy Eyed Founder Irving Rogers
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Edward Irving, the founder of the Irvingites, a religious movement that emerged in 19th century Scotland. Despite his significant contributions to religious history, Irving is perhaps best known for his distinctive cross-eyed gaze, which is prominently displayed in this portrait.
Born in 1792, Edward Irving was a Scottish clergyman whose unorthodox beliefs and charismatic preaching style attracted a devoted following. His teachings on spiritual gifts and prophecy set him apart from mainstream Christianity and led to his eventual excommunication from the Church of Scotland.
In this image, we see Irving's piercing eyes staring directly at the viewer, conveying both intensity and vulnerability. The stark black-and-white contrast adds to the solemnity of the portrait, emphasizing Irving's role as a controversial yet influential figure in religious history.
Despite facing criticism and persecution during his lifetime, Edward Irving's legacy continues to resonate with those who are drawn to his unconventional approach to faith. This print serves as a powerful reminder of his enduring impact on both Scottish society and Christian theology.
