EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Saint Eustachio's Encounter with the Sacred Stag: A Tale of Faith and Transformation" Saint Eustachio, also known as Eustace, was a renowned Roman soldier and general who lived during the 1st century AD. His life story is a fascinating blend of military prowess, spiritual awakening, and the miraculous intervention of divine power. The image depicts Saint Eustachio in the midst of a hunter's scene, with a stag staring at him intently from the forest. However, this is no ordinary stag. Between its antlers, the crucified figure of Jesus Christ is clearly visible. This extraordinary encounter is said to have occurred during a time when Eustachio had retired from military life and was living as a hermit in the woods, seeking penance for his past sins. The legend of Saint Eustachio's conversion to Christianity is deeply rooted in the early Christian tradition. According to hagiographic accounts, Eustachio's wife and young son were miraculously saved from a lion attack while he was away on military duty. Upon his return, he was filled with remorse for his past life and sought solace in the wilderness. It was during this period of penance that he encountered the stag with the crucifixion image, which is believed to have led him to embrace Christianity. The image of Saint Eustachio and the crucified stag became a popular motif in Christian art, symbolizing the power of faith and the transformative nature of divine intervention. This print, dated to the late 19th or early 20th century, is a beautiful testament to the enduring influence of this ancient tale on the artistic and spiritual traditions of Western civilization. Date: Unknown, likely late 19th or early 20th century.
