EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Origen of Alexandria, a prominent figure in early Christianity. The image, taken in 1830 by an unknown creator, captures the essence of this ancient scholar and theologian. Origen's long beard and hooded robe add to his aura of wisdom and asceticism. Origen was born in Alexandria around 184 AD and lived until approximately 253 AD. He was known for his prolific writing on theology, making significant contributions to Christian literature during his time. His works covered a wide range of topics related to religion and spirituality. The engraving beautifully portrays Origen's deep contemplation as he holds a book in his hands, symbolizing his dedication to education and intellectual pursuits. His face reflects years of knowledge acquired through extensive study. This portrait transports us back to the third century when Alexandria was an ancient city bustling with intellectual activity. It serves as a reminder of the rich history that shaped our understanding of Christianity today. The print is part of "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard, published by Thomas Tegg, R. Griffin & Co. , J Cumming in London, Glasgow, and Dublin in 1830. This remarkable piece allows us to connect with Origen's legacy as one of the most influential figures in early Christian scholarship.
