EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning lithograph captures the historic moment of The Landing of St Francis Xavier at Kagoshima in 1549. St Francis Xavier, accompanied by two priests and a Japanese convert named Paul Saint Foy, arrived on the shores of Kagoshima on the Feast of the Assumption. The Prince of Satsuma welcomed them initially, but opposition from native priests forced St Francis to leave after a year.
The image depicts this pivotal event with intricate detail and emotion, showcasing the meeting between St Francis and the prince amidst a backdrop of cultural exchange and religious fervor. The artist, Walter Frederick Roofe Tyndale, skillfully brings to life this significant chapter in history through his masterful use of lithography.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness the clash of traditions and beliefs that defined this era. The expressions on the faces of those present convey a sense of tension and intrigue as alliances are formed and broken.
This artwork serves as a powerful reminder of the complexities inherent in cross-cultural encounters and highlights the enduring legacy left by figures such as St Francis Xavier who sought to spread their message far beyond their own borders.
