EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Saint Francis of Assisi, one of the most revered religious leaders in history. The image showcases his gentle yet determined countenance, reflecting his unwavering faith and dedication to spreading the teachings of Christianity. Saint Francis, born Giovanni di Pietro di Bernardone in 1181 or 1182, was an Italian Catholic friar, deacon, and preacher. His life story is beautifully depicted in this illustration by Gordon Ross, a talented American artist and illustrator from the early 20th century. The portrait exudes a sense of serenity as Saint Francis gazes into the distance with a profound wisdom that transcends time. It serves as a powerful reminder of his significant contributions to theology and spirituality during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. As we admire this archival piece, we are transported back to medieval Italy where Saint Francis founded the Franciscan Order. He embraced poverty as a virtue while advocating for peace and compassion towards all living beings. Today he remains an inspirational figure for millions around the world. This historical photograph not only preserves Saint Francis' legacy but also symbolizes our collective admiration for those who dedicate their lives to serving others selflessly. Let us reflect on his teachings as we strive to emulate his virtues in our own lives.
