EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the effigy from the tomb of Beatrix Cornel, a remarkable woman who served as Prioress of the Lady Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem in the Convent of Sijena, Aragon, Spain during the 15th century. The lithograph was created by an anonymous French artist in the 19th century and is now part of a private collection. Beatrix Cornel's effigy portrays her full-length figure dressed in her habit, exuding an air of piety and devotion. Her headdress and wimple add to her dignified appearance, symbolizing her commitment to religious life. This medieval artwork offers us a glimpse into Spanish history during the Middle Ages and highlights Beatrix's significant role within the convent. As we admire this image, we are reminded of Beatrix's dedication to serving others through her position as Prioress. The Lady Hospitallers were known for their compassionate care towards those in need, particularly pilgrims visiting Jerusalem. Beatrix played an essential role in upholding these values within her community. The attention to detail captured by this lithograph allows us to appreciate not only Beatrix's physical representation but also her spiritual significance within St. John's order. It serves as a testament to both her personal faith and enduring legacy that continues to inspire generations today.
