EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of St. Genevieve, the patron saint of Paris. Painted by Jacquet in the 18th-19th century, this portrait showcases her divine presence with a halo illuminating her serene face. In her hands, she holds a distaff and lamb, symbolizing her role as a protector and nurturer. Surrounded by an intricate decorative border, this chromolithograph is part of Legende Celeste - a celestial legend that narrates the lives of saints. Within this border are vignettes depicting other revered figures such as St. Simeon Stylites, St. Titus (Bishop of Crete), Saint Macarius of Alexandria, and Saint Fulgence (Bishop of Ethiopia). Each vignette adds depth to the narrative and highlights their contributions to Christianity. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every element: from the crook and mitre adorning St. Genevieve's attire to the delicate foliage surrounding her image. The illustration exudes an aura of reverence through its use of gold gilt accents. Beyond its religious significance, this print also offers glimpses into natural history with depictions of various animals like lambs and wildlife creatures amidst blooming roses - showcasing both botanical beauty and scientific curiosity. Overall, this print serves as an exquisite testament to faith while celebrating nature's wonders intertwined with spiritual devotion.
