EDITORS COMMENTS
The Pilgrims Escape from Doubting Castle, c1910. This print captures a scene straight out of John Bunyan's renowned allegorical work, "The Pilgrim's Progress". Created by an unknown artist and produced as a glass lantern slide by the Church Army Lantern Department in the early 20th century, this image showcases the power of visual storytelling for evangelical purposes. In this dramatic depiction, we witness the brave Christian pilgrims making their daring escape from Doubting Castle. Clad in suits of armor, they run with determination and faith through the circular fortification while being pursued by a giant figure symbolizing doubt and indoctrination. The castle itself stands tall in the background, representing obstacles faced on one's spiritual journey. This artwork not only serves as a reminder of Bunyan's timeless literature but also highlights the efforts made by organizations like the Church Army to spread religious teachings across communities. With approximately 100,000 slides available for hire and special vans traveling around the country to showcase them to groups of people, these lantern slides played a significant role in evangelism during that era. As we admire this print today, let us appreciate its historical significance as both an artistic representation and a tool for religious education. It reminds us that even amidst challenges and doubts, faith can empower individuals to overcome obstacles on their path towards spiritual enlightenment.
