EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that transports us back to the 19th century, where Christian missionaries embarked on daring journeys to spread their faith across the globe. This print, part of a private collection, beautifully captures the essence of this historical period. The image showcases Captain James Wilson, a courageous commander who led his crew aboard The Duff on an extraordinary mission. With unwavering determination and deep-rooted Christian values, they ventured into uncharted territories in pursuit of religious enlightenment. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for "Conquests of the Cross" a renowned book edited by Edwin Hodder in 1890. It serves as a visual testament to the remarkable missionary work carried out worldwide during that era. The scene depicts The Duff sailing through tumultuous waters while its crew members stand united with unwavering resolve. Their faces reflect both determination and compassion as they navigate treacherous seas in their quest to bring Christianity to distant lands. "The Duff and her Commander" not only celebrates the bravery and dedication of these missionaries but also highlights the power of religion in shaping societies around the world. It reminds us of our shared humanity and how faith can inspire individuals to embark on extraordinary endeavors for the greater good.
