The Capture of the Eagle
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that depicts a significant moment in the history of The Salvation Army. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a scene from an afternoon meeting held at the Grecian Theatre in London. The image captures General William Booth, founder of The Salvation Army, leading his band and surrounded by members known as the "Hallelujah Lasses". In this powerful moment, they are seen capturing an eagle, symbolizing their triumph over adversity and their mission to bring hope and salvation to those in need. Amongst them are Misses Catherine and Mrs. Booth, who played crucial roles alongside General Booth in establishing The Salvation Army's presence. Their dedication and passion for helping others shine through as they stand united with their fellow soldiers. The setting itself adds to the vibrancy of the scene - the Grecian Theatre was transformed into a place where joyous music filled every corner. This engraving serves as a testament to The Salvation Army's commitment to spreading love and compassion through music and community gatherings. This remarkable print not only celebrates The Salvation Army's rich history but also reminds us of its enduring legacy that continues to inspire people around the world today.
