EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - Martin Luther hanging his 95 theses in Wittenberg, Germany, on October 31,1517. In this powerful image, we witness the birth of the Protestant Reformation. Martin Luther (1483-1546), a German monk and theologian, boldly challenged the Catholic Church's practice of selling indulgences. With conviction burning in his eyes, he fearlessly affixes his revolutionary ideas to the gates of Wittenberg Cathedral. The engraving from 1865 beautifully portrays this iconic scene with intricate detail. The artist's skillful hand brings to life Luther's determination and unwavering faith as he takes a stand against corruption within the church. Luther's act ignited a fire that spread like wildfire throughout Europe. His profound critique questioned not only indulgences but also sparked broader discussions about religious authority and salvation by faith alone. This event marked a turning point in Western Christianity and forever changed the course of history. As we gaze upon this historic image today, we are reminded of Martin Luther's courage to challenge established norms for what he believed was right. It serves as an enduring symbol of protest against injustice and oppression. Stefano Bianchetti's timeless artwork invites us to reflect on our own convictions and encourages us to question societal norms when they contradict our values. This remarkable piece continues to inspire generations with its depiction of one man who dared to challenge an entire institution for what he believed
