EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment from the life of Germanus of Auxerre, a revered Bishop who lived in the late 4th and early 5th centuries. The image depicts an intense scene where Germanus is called upon to solve a grave crime. Januarius, a tax collector, had lost his bag containing the yearly taxes and sought Germanus' help in finding the thief. After three days of relentless searching, all suspicious individuals were gathered before the Bishop in the solemn setting of a church. Falling to his knees, Germanus fervently prayed for divine intervention to reveal the truth. In an astonishing turn of events, as if guided by unseen forces, flames suddenly engulfed the hands that held onto one particular man accused of theft. The thief was lifted upwards amidst shrieks of torment while still ablaze - an awe-inspiring sight that left witnesses astounded and filled with both fear and reverence for Germanus' unwavering faith and connection with higher powers. This remarkable tale has been immortalized through this vintage print sourced from "The Book of Saints and Heroes" published in 1912. It serves as a testament to Germanus' reputation as not only a spiritual leader but also as someone capable of miraculous acts when confronted with injustice or wrongdoing.
