From the 1896 original edition, Translated from the Polish by Jeremiah Curtin. This version is illustrated with drawings by Jan Styka (a Polish painter noted for producing large historical, battle-piece, and Christian religious panoramas). Quo Vadis: A Narrative of the Time of Nero, commonly known as Quo Vadis, is a historical novel written by Henryk Sienkiewicz in Polish. "Quo vadis, Domine?" is Latin for "Where are you going, Lord?" and appears in Chapter 69 of the novel in a retelling of a story from the apocryphal Acts of Peter, in which Peter flees Rome but on his way meets Jesus and asks him why he is going to Rome. Jesus says, "If thou desertest my people, I am going to Rome to be crucified a second time," which shames Peter into going back to Rome to accept martyrdom.
