EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in British history - the baptism of Ethelbert, king of Kent, by Saint Augustine. Sent by Pope Gregory to Christianize the British people, whether they wanted it or not, this event marked a significant turning point in the spread of Christianity throughout Britain.
Ethelbert's conversion to Christianity was a key moment in the establishment of Christianity as the dominant religion in England. The image depicts Ethelbert kneeling before Saint Augustine, his expression one of reverence and humility as he is baptized into the Christian faith.
The historical significance of this moment cannot be overstated. It represents not only the personal transformation of Ethelbert but also the broader cultural shift towards Christianity that would shape British society for centuries to come.
Through this powerful image, we are transported back to 597 AD and given a glimpse into a defining moment in British history. The intricate details captured by Mary Evans Picture Library bring this ancient scene to life, allowing us to witness firsthand the profound impact of religious conversion on an entire nation.
As we reflect on this image, we are reminded of the enduring legacy of those who came before us and laid the foundation for our modern world.
