EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases an exquisite engraving depicting "The Westminster Assembly of Divines". Created by John Rogers Herbert and now part of a private collection, this remarkable artwork offers us a window into one of the most significant religious gatherings in history. Intricately detailed, the engraving captures the solemnity and intellectual fervor that characterized this assembly. The divines, renowned theologians and scholars from England and Scotland, are depicted engaged in deep discussions around a large table adorned with books and manuscripts. Their expressions reflect intense concentration as they debate matters of faith, doctrine, and church governance. Originally published as an illustration for H. D.
