EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Saint Francois d Assise prechant aux oiseaux" transports us to the serene countryside of 19th-century France. The print beautifully captures a moment of profound connection between Saint Francis of Assisi and nature's winged creatures. In this scene, Saint Francis stands amidst lush green pastures, surrounded by a variety of wildlife animals. With an air of love and brotherly affection, he extends his arms in a gesture that seems to embrace all living beings. His gentle presence attracts an array of birds, who perch on his outstretched hands and shoulders as if drawn by an invisible force. The rural landscape serves as the perfect backdrop for this peaceful encounter. It reflects the simplicity and tranquility that characterized Saint Francis' life and teachings. As a preacher, he believed in spreading God's message not only through words but also through actions that demonstrated compassion towards all creatures. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for La Chasse Illustree in 1870-71. Its timeless beauty continues to inspire viewers today with its depiction of true love for both humans and animals alike. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left by Saint Francis – one that encourages us to cherish our natural surroundings and foster harmony among all living beings.
