EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning colour lithograph print depicts the miraculous crossing of Saint Pachomius the Great over the River Nile on the backs of crocodiles. Created by Job, pseudonym for Onfray de Breville, Jacques in the early 20th century, this artwork captures a moment of divine intervention and faith.
Saint Pachomius is depicted with a halo, symbolizing his holiness and connection to God. The crocodiles beneath him are rendered in vivid colours, adding to the mystical atmosphere of the scene. This illustration comes from A la Gloire des Betes, a work by Aristide Fabre that celebrates animals and their significance in religious contexts.
The historical context of this image adds depth to its meaning - Saint Pachomius lived in Egypt during the 4th century and was known for his piety and devotion to prayer. His ability to command nature itself speaks to his status as a saint revered for his miracles.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of awe-inspiring wonder. The combination of religious symbolism, vibrant colours, and historical significance makes this artwork truly captivating and worthy of contemplation.
