EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Sainte Blandine" showcases the talent of the French School in the 19th century. The print, part of a private collection, is an illustration for the book Les Femmes Dans L Histoire by Madame de Witt (Hachette, 1888). The image transports us to a time when women played significant roles in history. Sainte Blandine, depicted here with grace and strength, stands as a symbol of feminine power and resilience. Her presence commands attention as she captivates both viewers and wild animals alike. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness Sainte Blandine's connection with nature as she fearlessly interacts with lions. The big cats surround her but show no signs of aggression; instead, they seem tamed by her gentle touch. This portrayal highlights not only her bravery but also her ability to command respect from even the wildest creatures. The artist skillfully captures every intricate detail through delicate engravings that bring life to this historical moment. Through their work, we are transported back in time to witness this extraordinary circus performance or perhaps even a freak show where Sainte Blandine's unique abilities were showcased. This enchanting engraving reminds us of the rich history that lies within art and how it can transport us into different eras while celebrating remarkable individuals like Sainte Blandine who left an indelible mark on society.
