EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print depicts a poignant moment in history as St Vincent de Paul assists King Louis XIII of France in his final moments. Created by the European School in the 19th century, this educational card transports us back to the year 1643, where we witness an act of compassion and devotion. The image showcases St Vincent de Paul, a revered priest and founder of religious orders, attending to the dying king's deathbed. With a halo above his head symbolizing his saintly status, St Vincent offers solace and comfort during this solemn time. The French monarch lies peacefully with crossed hands, surrounded by his grieving family. This artwork not only highlights the significance of religion but also emphasizes the power it holds over people's lives. In this instance, Catholicism plays a central role as both St Vincent de Paul and King Louis XIII were devout followers. The composition captures the essence of 17th-century France with its royal setting and religious undertones. It serves as a reminder of how faith can bring people together even in their most vulnerable moments. As we gaze upon this historical scene frozen in time, we are reminded of the enduring impact that individuals like St Vincent de Paul had on society through their unwavering commitment to their beliefs and their willingness to provide support during times of great need.
