EDITORS COMMENTS
In this colored engraving, we witness the profound moment of faith and hope embodied in the life of Saint Monica (331-387 A.D.), a revered figure in both Catholicism and Christianity. The scene unfolds as Monica, with an air of deep devotion and trust, sits by her son's bedside. Her son, Augustine of Hippo, lies asleep, unaware of the divine intervention taking place above him. Monica's unwavering faith is symbolized by the winged figure of Hope, who descends from the heavens, her outstretched hand reaching towards the infant Augustine. Hope, personified as a beautiful angel, represents the belief that God's grace and mercy will save Monica's son from a life of sin and despair. The engraving, dating back to the 4th century, is an allegory of the theological virtues of faith and hope, which Monica exemplified throughout her life. The scene is further enriched by the presence of a book, which Monica clutches in her hands. This symbolizes the importance of prayer and scripture in her life, as she sought solace and guidance from God's word. The gentle light that filters in through the window adds to the serene and hopeful atmosphere, creating a powerful visual representation of the transformative power of faith and hope in the face of adversity. Saint Monica's story is one of enduring hope and unwavering faith, as she prayed for the salvation of her son, who would later become a renowned theologian and Bishop in the Catholic Church. This beautiful allegory serves as a reminder of the strength and resilience that can be found in the depths of our faith, and the power of hope to sustain us through even the most challenging times.
