EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century depicts St Stephen, a Christian martyr, carrying a palm frond and the very stones that were used in his brutal martyrdom. The print showcases the deep religious devotion and resilience of this saint who faced persecution during ancient Roman times. The image is taken from Jesus-Christ, a renowned book by Louis Veuillot, accompanied by E Cartier's insightful study on Christian art. It offers a glimpse into the rich history of Christianity and its values. The artwork is part of a private collection and provides an intriguing window into the past. The intricate details of the engraving highlight both the violence inflicted upon St Stephen and his unwavering faith in spite of it all. The stones he carries symbolize not only his suffering but also serve as reminders of his ultimate sacrifice for his beliefs. Surrounded by palm trees in a serene grove, St Stephen stands as an emblematic figure representing martyrdom within Christianity. This portrayal emphasizes both his status as a saint and serves as an inspiration to those facing adversity today. Through this historical piece, we are reminded of the enduring power of religious conviction and how individuals like St Stephen have shaped our understanding of faith throughout time.
