EDITORS COMMENTS
The Release of the Seven Bishops, 1688 (1878) captures a pivotal moment in English history. This powerful print by Herbert Bourne depicts the seven bishops of the Church of England who were unjustly imprisoned and tried for seditious libel. Their crime? Speaking out against James II's second Declaration of Indulgence. In this image, we see a diverse group of individuals walking along a religious street, their faces filled with determination and faith. Men, women, boys, and girls all join together in solidarity as they make their way towards freedom. The atmosphere is tense yet hopeful as they navigate through the bustling British lane. The scene beautifully reflects both the historical significance and religious fervor surrounding this event. Kneeling figures symbolize devotion to Christianity while others represent different walks of life coming together for a common cause. Sepia tones add depth and authenticity to this 17th-century setting. This remarkable engraving was originally published by Thomas Archer in his book Pictures and Royal Portraits Illustrative of English and Scottish History. It serves as a testament to the resilience and triumph over oppression during one of Britain's most turbulent periods. Herbert Bourne's meticulous attention to detail brings this significant moment back to life, reminding us that even in dark times, justice can prevail.
