EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in John Bunyan's renowned allegorical novel, The Pilgrim's Progress. Christians conflict with Apollyon is beautifully illustrated by an anonymous English artist from the 19th century. The scene depicts a fierce battle between Christian, the protagonist of the story, and Apollyon, one of the devil's archdevils. Apollyon is portrayed as a dragon-like creature with scales and bat wings, breathing fire and emanating an aura of destruction. Armed with his armor, sword, and spears, Christian fearlessly confronts this formidable enemy in the valley of humiliation. The intensity of the battle is vividly conveyed through flames that engulf their surroundings. Every detail showcases the determination and bravery exhibited by Christian on his arduous pilgrimage. This image encapsulates not only physical combat but also symbolizes spiritual warfare faced by individuals on their own journeys towards salvation. It serves as a reminder that every traveler encounters obstacles along their path but must persevere against evil forces to reach their ultimate destination. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from our private collection, we are transported into Bunyan's imaginative world where good clashes with evil. This print invites us to reflect on our own battles against temptation and adversity while inspiring us to find strength within ourselves to overcome any obstacle that may stand in our way.
