EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Middle Ages, specifically to a heretical movement known as the Flagellants. The image is a reproduction of a 15th-century miniature, featured in Paul Lacroix's renowned book "Military and Religious Life in the Middle Ages" published in London around 1880. The illustration depicts a group of flagellants engaged in their controversial religious practices. These individuals believed that by inflicting physical pain upon themselves through self-flagellation, they could atone for their sins and gain favor with God. However, the Latin inscription on this print reveals an unsettling truth - it suggests that these devout followers were unknowingly sacrificing to Satan instead of worshiping God. The Flagellant movement was considered highly heretical during its time, challenging established religious authorities and provoking intense debates within medieval society. This image offers us a glimpse into this fascinating sect's rituals and beliefs. Ken Welsh's skillful reproduction allows us to appreciate not only the intricate details of this historical artwork but also its cultural significance. It serves as a reminder of how different religious movements have shaped our understanding of faith throughout history. Whether you are captivated by medieval art or intrigued by religious dissenters from centuries past, this print is sure to spark curiosity and prompt reflection on the complexities of belief systems throughout time.
