The 1917 caption reads: “Then did Christian draw his sword Pilgrim's Progress.” The Pilgrim’s Progress, is a religious allegory by the English writer John Bunyan, published in two parts in 1678 and 1684. The work is a symbolic vision of the good man’s pilgrimage through life. Christian is the central character of the book and the hero of the pilgrimage. Because Bunyan wrote The Pilgrim's Progress as an allegory rather than a novel, Christian is not represented as particularly complicated or conflicted and has a simple personality.
