EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the historic moment of the Enthronement of the Bishop of London in the Choir of St Paul's Cathedral on 4 December 1856. The image, created by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century, showcases a significant event in religious history. The grandeur and solemnity of this ceremonial occasion are evident as we witness clergy members gathered within the magnificent walls of St Paul's Cathedral. The bishop, Archibald Tait, takes center stage as he assumes his rightful place on the ornate throne amidst a sea of priests and religious orders. The atmosphere is filled with reverence and awe as these devoted individuals come together to celebrate their faith. This visual spectacle serves not only as a testament to their devotion but also highlights the importance placed upon tradition and hierarchy within religious institutions. Beyond its religious significance, this engraving offers us a glimpse into Victorian society at large. It reminds us that religion played an integral role in shaping social structures during this era. Moreover, it emphasizes how moments like these were eagerly documented by publications such as Illustrated Times for wider public consumption. As we gaze upon this historical print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to a time when ceremony and ritual held great sway over people's lives – reminding us that even today, our places of worship continue to be spaces where traditions are upheld and celebrated.
