EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a powerful moment from the life of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary. The image depicts Elizabeth on her mission of pity, as she selflessly tends to the needs of the poor and sick. Clad in a medieval costume befitting her era, she carries a plate filled with nourishment for those who hunger. The walled garden provides an intimate backdrop for this scene, symbolizing both protection and seclusion. As Elizabeth encounters a beggar along her path, her compassionate nature shines through as she offers him a meal. With grace and humility, she assumes the role of nurse and nurturer, giving sustenance to those in need. This portrayal beautifully captures the essence of St. Elizabeth's legacy as patroness of the poor and sick. Her unwavering dedication to serving others is evident in every detail - from her gentle expression to the careful way she holds out the dish. Eleanor Fortescue-Brickdale's masterful use of color lithography brings depth and vibrancy to this poignant image. It serves as a timeless reminder that even centuries later, acts of kindness can still inspire us all.
