EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "How the horse sympathised with St Columba" transports us to a moment of profound connection between man and beast. Created by Henry Justice Ford in the early 20th century, this print captures an illustration from "The Book of Saints and Heroes" edited by Andrew Lang. In this scene, we witness St Columba, a revered figure in history, receiving solace and understanding from an unexpected source – a majestic horse. The artist skillfully portrays the deep bond between these two beings as they share a moment of empathy and compassion. The historical significance of this artwork lies not only in its depiction of St Columba but also in its portrayal of horses as integral companions throughout human history. Horses have long been valued for their strength, loyalty, and ability to forge connections with humans. This engraving serves as a reminder that animals possess an innate capacity for empathy that transcends language barriers. As we gaze upon this litho print, we are reminded of our shared existence with animals and the potential for mutual understanding across species boundaries. It is through art like this that we can appreciate the interconnectedness between humans and animals throughout time. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to bring home a piece of history while celebrating both the artistic mastery of Henry Justice Ford and the timeless bond between humans and animals.
