EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia-toned print captures a significant moment in history - St. Bernard preaching the second crusade. The illustration, taken from H. D. M. Spence-Jones' book "The Church of England: A History for the People" transports us back to a time when religious fervor and the call for holy war resonated deeply within society. In this scene, we see Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, a renowned theologian and Cistercian monk, standing before a mesmerized crowd. His powerful presence commands attention as he passionately delivers his sermon on the importance of embarking on another crusade. The audience is captivated by his words, their faces reflecting both awe and determination. Amongst them are knights ready to take up arms, commoners seeking redemption through battle, and curious spectators drawn by the charisma of this revered preacher. As an abbot himself, St. Bernard's influence extends beyond just spiritual matters; he holds sway over political leaders who have gathered at Vézelay to hear his persuasive arguments for launching another expedition to reclaim Jerusalem. James Archer's lithograph skillfully brings this historical moment to life with intricate details that evoke both grandeur and solemnity. Through this image, we glimpse into an era where faith was intertwined with warfare and individuals were willing to sacrifice everything in pursuit of divine glory. This remarkable engraving serves as a reminder of how religion has shaped our world throughout centuries - inspiring devotion but also igniting conflicts that continue to resonate even
