EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting 19th-century wood engraving captures a chilling moment from the dark era of the Spanish Inquisition. The image depicts Geleyn Cornelius, a victim of this brutal period, suspended by his thumb with weights in 1572. His body contorts under the excruciating pain and strain as he endures this medieval form of punishment. The artist skillfully portrays the cruelty and violence inflicted upon those deemed heretics during this time. The detailed engraving showcases every agonizing detail, emphasizing the suffering endured by individuals like Cornelius who dared to challenge religious orthodoxy. Cornelius' expression reflects both physical agony and unwavering defiance against his oppressors. His eyes convey resilience amidst unimaginable torment, symbolizing the indomitable spirit that persisted even in the face of such horrific persecution. This print serves as a stark reminder of humanity's capacity for intolerance and brutality throughout history. It stands as a testament to the countless lives lost or forever scarred due to their beliefs or perceived crimes during one of history's darkest chapters – the Spanish Inquisition. As we gaze upon this powerful image today, it compels us to reflect on our own commitment to justice, tolerance, and freedom of thought. May it serve as an enduring reminder that we must never allow ourselves to repeat such atrocities again.
