caption: WALD (c. 1140 - 1206) French religious reformer; his name was Valdès, later Latinized to Valdus and to which the name Peter was later added (not authentic). A rich merchant from Lyon, he decided to follow the evangelical ideal of poverty; his first followers called themselves the ''poor of Lyon'', later ''Waldensians''. Half-length portrait, engraving from the statue on the base of the monument to Luther in the complex dedicated to him in the city of Worms, designed by Ernst Rietschel (1804 - 1861) but completed by his assistants after his death and inaugurated in 1868. Germany, 19th century.
