1821 Baker Eddy Elderly Founder Oval Years
EDITORS COMMENTS
Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910): A Visionary Pioneer in the Last Decades of Her Life This evocative oval portrait captures Mary Baker Eddy, the visionary founder of Christian Science, in her later years. Born on July 16, 1821, in Bowdoinham, Maine, Eddy's life was marked by a deep spiritual quest that led her to challenge traditional religious beliefs and establish a new religious movement. By the early 1900s, Eddy's health had begun to decline, but her spirit remained undeterred. In this photograph, taken during her final years, Eddy is shown wearing a high collar and a cross necklace, symbols of her unwavering faith. Her gaze is steady and resolute, reflecting the unyielding determination that had fueled her groundbreaking work. Christian Science, which emphasizes the healing power of prayer and the spiritual nature of reality, had gained a significant following by the turn of the century. Eddy's seminal work, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," had become a cornerstone of the movement, and her teachings continued to inspire and transform the lives of countless individuals. Despite her advanced age and declining health, Eddy remained an active leader in the Christian Science community, traveling extensively to give lectures and heal the sick. Her legacy as a pioneering spiritual leader and trailblazer for women's rights endures to this day, making this portrait a poignant reminder of an extraordinary life.
