EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating glimpse into the religious costumes of ancient times. The engraving features four distinct portraits, each representing a different order of monks. From left to right, we see a Carmelite friar, a Franciscan monk, a Capuchin monk, and finally, a Trappist from the Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance. The attention to detail in these engravings is truly remarkable. Each monk is depicted wearing their distinctive attire that reflects their respective orders' traditions and beliefs. The Carmelite friar dons his brown robe with its characteristic hood and scapular; meanwhile, the Franciscan monk wears his simple habit tied with rope around his waist. Moving along, we encounter the Capuchin monk sporting his iconic long brown cloak with pointed hood and beard. Finally, our gaze falls upon the Trappist monk dressed in an austere white habit adorned only by a black belt. These religious costumes not only serve as identifiers for each order but also symbolize their dedication to faith and asceticism. This engraving offers us an invaluable window into history when such garments were worn daily by devout individuals committed to serving God through prayer and contemplation. Preserved within this private collection by French School from the 20th century, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill behind these engravings and gain insight into centuries-old religious practices that continue to inspire awe today.
