EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary Saint Columba arriving in Inverness to convert the heathen Picts, using a miraculous display of power to unbar their fortress gates. The scene is steeped in history and religious significance, as Columba, an Irish saint known for his missionary work and establishment of monasteries, brings Christianity to the people of Scotland.
The image exudes a sense of awe and wonder as Saint Columba stands before the imposing fortress gates, surrounded by onlookers who are witnessing this extraordinary event. His presence commands attention and respect, symbolizing the power of faith and divine intervention in overcoming obstacles.
The historical context of this momentous occasion is palpable in every detail captured by Mary Evans Picture Library. From the architecture of the fortress to the expressions on the faces of those present, we are transported back to 597 AD when Saint Columba embarked on his mission to spread Christianity throughout Scotland.
