EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a significant moment in history - "The Burning of Thomas Haukes, 10 June 1555". Taken from John Foxe's renowned book "Acts and Monuments" this woodcut illustration depicts the horrifying scene of martyrdom during the reign of Queen Mary I, also known as Bloody Mary. In the image, we see Thomas Haukes tied to a stake, surrounded by a crowd. Despite his impending fate, he maintains an unwavering sense of dignity and courage. The expressions on the faces of those around him reveal a mix of fear, sadness, and reverence for this brave Protestant martyr. The atmosphere is heavy with tension as people gather to witness this act of persecution. Some members of the crowd are seen praying fervently for Haukes' soul while others stand in silent solidarity against religious oppression. This image serves as a reminder not only of the brutality faced by Protestants during Tudor times but also their unwavering faith in the face of adversity. Through its stark simplicity and attention to detail, this woodcut transports us back to an era marked by religious conflict and intolerance. It stands as both a historical record and a testament to human resilience in times when belief systems clashed violently. This print invites contemplation about our own values today and reminds us never to take freedom of religion for granted.
