EDITORS COMMENTS
This early woodcut print captures the timeless story of St Christopher, known as the Christ-bearer, carrying Christ across a flowing stream. Dating back to the 3rd century, this image depicts a Canaanite giant fulfilling his task of assisting travellers on their journey by safely transporting them over water. The scene is filled with symbolism and religious significance, showcasing St Christopher's unwavering devotion and strength as he bears the weight of Christ on his shoulders. The black and white contrast adds a sense of timelessness to the artwork, emphasizing the enduring nature of faith and service. As we gaze upon this historic depiction, we are reminded of the power of selflessness and compassion in guiding others through life's challenges. St Christopher stands as a symbol of protection and guidance for all who seek his intercession on their travels. This woodcut print serves as a visual representation of an ancient legend that continues to inspire believers around the world. It invites us to reflect on our own role as bearers of light and hope in an often turbulent world, just like St Christopher bravely carried Christ across that stream centuries ago.
