EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful black and white wood engraving captures the martyrdom of Saint Jean de Brebeuf, a French Jesuit missionary who met his tragic fate during an Iroquois raid on a Huron village in 1649. The image depicts the intense moment when Father Jean de Brebeuf is captured by the Iroquois, surrounded by tribal warriors adorned with traditional headdresses and armed with daggers. In this solemn ceremony, we witness the bravery and resilience of both the native people and the courageous missionary. The artist, Eric Gill, skillfully portrays the dramatic scene with intricate details that evoke a sense of historical authenticity. The burning torches illuminate the darkness as men dance around a stake where Father Jean de Brebeuf will face his ultimate sacrifice for his faith. Despite being stripped naked, he stands tall and unwavering in his conviction. This woodcut from "The Travels and Sufferings of Father Jean de Brebeuf" serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by early missionaries like him to spread their beliefs across North America. It also highlights the complex relationship between European settlers and Native American tribes during this tumultuous period in history. As we gaze upon this haunting image, let us remember those who came before us - individuals whose unwavering dedication to their convictions shaped our world today.
