EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Miss Stone in the captivity of Macedonian bandits" transports us back to a tumultuous event in history. The colour litho, created by an anonymous French School artist in the 20th century, depicts American missionary Ellen Stone held captive alongside another missionary, Katerina Stefanova-Tsilka, by Macedonian bandits. The image showcases Miss Stone's resilience and strength as she finds herself amidst the dense forested mountains of Macedonia. Dressed in traditional Macedonian attire, both women are portrayed as hostages against their will. This illustration was originally featured in Le Petit Journal on October 27th, 1901. The kidnapping of these courageous missionaries shocked the world at that time and shed light on the dangers faced by those who dedicated their lives to helping others. It serves as a reminder of the risks involved in pursuing humanitarian work. Through this artwork, we gain insight into a significant crime committed during that era and witness the bravery exhibited by Miss Stone and her companion throughout their harrowing ordeal. Their capture symbolizes not only their personal struggle but also represents countless individuals who have been victims of kidnappings around the globe. This thought-provoking image captures a moment frozen in time - one that reminds us of our shared humanity and calls for compassion towards those facing adversity.
