Sinopsis

'The Preaching Of Knox Before The Lords Of The Congregation' commemorates a pivotal moment in Scottish history. This engraving, based on a painting by Sir David Wilkie, captures the intensity of John Knox?s preaching during the Scottish Reformation. The image depicts Knox, a central figure in the Reformation, delivering a sermon before the Lords of the Congregation, a group of Protestant nobles who opposed the Catholic Church?s dominance in Scotland. Wilkie?s engraving offers a visual representation of the religious and political upheaval that defined 16th-century Scotland. It serves as a powerful reminder of Knox?s influence and the Congregation?s determination to establish Protestantism as the dominant faith.
