1678 Bunyan Helps Pass Progress Wicket Good Will
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts a pivotal moment from John Bunyan's timeless allegory, "The Pilgrim's Progress," published in 1678. In this scene, titled "Pilgrims Progress, Part IV: Goodwill Helps Christian to Pass Through the Wicket Gate," Christian, the protagonist, is shown standing before the Wicket Gate, a narrow entrance symbolizing the entrance to the Celestial City. Goodwill, a companion and guide, extends a helping hand to Christian, assisting him in overcoming the final obstacle on his spiritual journey. Bunyan's "The Pilgrim's Progress" is a seminal work in English literature and has been a source of inspiration for generations. The narrative follows Christian as he leaves his worldly life behind and embarks on a perilous journey towards salvation, encountering various trials and tribulations along the way. This print, created in the late 19th or early 20th century, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Bunyan's work. The intricate details of the illustration, from the expressive faces of the characters to the lush foliage in the background, bring the story to life in a visually captivating way. The Wicket Gate represents the entrance to the Celestial City, a symbol of the ultimate goal of the Christian faith. Christian's successful passage through the gate signifies his achievement of spiritual enlightenment and salvation. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of perseverance and the assistance of good friends in the face of adversity. This historical print is a must-have for anyone with an interest in religious literature, English literature, or the history of printing. Its intricate details and rich symbolism make it a fascinating addition to any collection.
