EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Maori War Expedition stopped by the missionary" takes us back to 19th century New Zealand, where a significant clash of cultures and beliefs occurred. The print depicts a powerful scene from Edwin Hodder's book "Conquests of the Cross" showcasing the encounter between Maori warriors on an expedition and a courageous Christian missionary. In this historical moment frozen in time, we witness the collision of two worlds. The imposing figures of Maori warriors are halted in their tracks as they come face to face with the unwavering determination of the missionary. With his arms outstretched, he stands as a symbol of peace amidst conflict, challenging their path forward. The image not only highlights the physical confrontation but also serves as a visual representation of religious ideologies intertwining with political tensions. It raises questions about colonialism, cultural assimilation, and spiritual conquests that were prevalent during this era. Through this engraving, we are reminded of Christianity's role in shaping history and its impact on indigenous communities worldwide. It invites contemplation on themes such as faith, resilience, conversion, and how different belief systems can both unite and divide societies. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable artwork for us to reflect upon our collective past while acknowledging its relevance in understanding our present-day multicultural world.
