EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in history as Martin Luther is ordained as a priest by Jerome Scultetus, the Bishop of Brandenburg, at Erfurt Cathedral on 3 April 1507. The image, created by Gustav Ferdinand Leopold Konig, showcases the solemnity and grandeur of this religious ceremony. In this scene, we witness Luther's ordination as he takes his first steps into the clergy. Dressed in traditional clerical attire, Luther stands before Bishop Scultetus with reverence and anticipation. The ornate architecture of Erfurt Cathedral serves as an awe-inspiring backdrop to this monumental event. Luther's ordination marked the beginning of his journey towards becoming one of the most influential figures in Christian history. This pivotal moment would eventually lead him to challenge certain practices within the Roman Catholic Church and ignite what would later be known as the Protestant Reformation. The engraving beautifully captures not only Luther's personal significance but also reflects broader themes such as faith, religion, and historical change. It serves as a testament to both Luther's individual impact and the larger movements that shaped Europe during this time period. Through its intricate details and digital restoration, this print allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also invites us to reflect on the profound historical implications it represents.
