EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a pivotal moment in history as Loyola and his companions swear an oath at an altar in Montmartre, Paris to create the Society of Jesus. In 1534, amidst the turmoil of the Reformation, these Jesuits vowed to defend the Catholic Church against its adversaries.
The solemnity and determination on their faces speak volumes about the gravity of their mission. As they kneel before the altar, one can almost feel the weight of responsibility that they have taken upon themselves. The image is a testament to their unwavering faith and commitment to upholding their beliefs in the face of adversity.
In a world torn apart by religious conflict, this photograph serves as a reminder of the power of conviction and unity in defending what one holds dear. It is a snapshot of a moment that would shape not only their lives but also the course of history.
As we look at this image, we are reminded that even in our own times, there are those who continue to stand firm in defense of their beliefs. The legacy of Loyola and his companions lives on through the enduring impact of the Society of Jesus, which continues to work towards promoting justice and compassion in today's world.
