EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and vibrant frontispiece from "The Story of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary" beautifully illustrated by Eleanor Fortescue-Brickdale in 1921. This color lithograph print captures the essence of innocence and joy, depicting a young girl playing in a garden. In this enchanting scene, we see St. Elizabeth of Hungary as a child, surrounded by nature's beauty. With her golden halo shining brightly above her head, she exudes an aura of divine purity. The artist skillfully portrays the playful spirit within her as she engages with unseen companions. The image evokes a sense of wonderment and curiosity, inviting us to imagine the games that unfold between this heavenly child and her ethereal playmates. It reminds us that even saints were once innocent children who reveled in simple pleasures. St. Elizabeth herself was known for her compassion towards the poor and sick during her short life in the 13th century. As patroness of those less fortunate, she embodied kindness and selflessness—a message echoed through this artwork's portrayal. Fortescue-Brickdale's illustration transports us back to medieval times while capturing timeless themes such as youthfulness, spirituality, and love for others. It serves as an exquisite reminder that amidst life's challenges, there is always room for playfulness and connection with something greater than ourselves. This stunning print from Fine Art Finder invites viewers to embrace their inner childlike spirit while honoring the legacy left behind by remarkable individuals like
