EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts Saint Francis Xavier (1506-1552), a renowned Spanish missionary and a founding member of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits), making his way through the bustling streets of the Portuguese colonial settlement in Goa, India, in 1542. Dressed in the traditional robes of a Jesuit friar, Saint Francis Xavier carries a large bell, signaling the arrival of the Christian faith in this part of Asia. The engraving captures the essence of the evangelization efforts during the 16th century, as European powers, led by Portugal, sought to spread Christianity throughout the world. Children and curious onlookers gather around the saint, their expressions a mix of awe and wonder. The vibrant colors of the engraving bring the scene to life, transporting us back in time to an era when religious beliefs and cultural exchange shaped the course of history. The Portuguese Empire, which had established a strong presence in India, played a pivotal role in the spread of Christianity, and Goa served as a key center for missionary activities. Saint Francis Xavier, known for his tireless dedication to spreading the word of God, traveled extensively throughout the East Indies, converting thousands to Christianity. His legacy continues to inspire and captivate, as this beautiful engraving serves as a testament to the profound impact of his missionary work during the modern age.
