EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The China Inland Mission (engraving)" by the English School in the 19th century. The image, part of a private collection, depicts the recruits who have recently joined the staff of this historic mission. Originally published in The Graphic on June 6,1885, this engraving offers a glimpse into the diverse group of individuals dedicated to serving their religious calling. Amongst those portrayed are Mr. Cecil H. Polhill Turner, late curate of All Saints; Mr. Stanley P. Smith, a military captain and stroke of Cambridge Eight; and Mr. Arthur T. Polhill Turner, nephew of Lord Radstock and graduate from Trinity College. The composition also includes Reverend W. W Cassels and Mr. C. T Studd alongside other notable figures such as Mr. D. E Hoste and Mr Montague Beauchamp - all united by their shared commitment to the China Inland Mission. From priests to imams and clergyman to graduates, this engraving reflects how people from various backgrounds came together under one common goal: spreading religion in China during that era. With its rich historical context and detailed portraits capturing each individual's unique story, this print serves as a testament to both recruitment efforts for religious orders at that time and the enduring power of faith across different cultures.
