EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Hudson hiding in the fagots" we are transported back to the 19th century, immersing ourselves in a moment of intense secrecy and danger. The image depicts Thomas Hudson, a Protestant martyr, concealed within a stack of fagots made from firwood. This powerful illustration is taken from "The Book of Martyrs" by John Foxe, published in 1869. As we gaze at the photograph, we can feel the tension building as Hudson hides amidst these wooden materials that would soon fuel a fire intended to end his life. The artist skillfully captures both the vulnerability and resilience of this brave individual who risked everything for his beliefs. The composition draws our attention to the intricate details of each piece of timber making up the fagots. We can almost hear their whispers as they shield Hudson from prying eyes, providing him with temporary refuge during this perilous time. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals throughout history who stood firm in their convictions despite facing persecution. It invites us to reflect on our own values and consider what lengths we would go to defend them. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, this remarkable snapshot has been preserved for generations to come. It continues to inspire viewers with its profound message about courage and determination in times of adversity.
