EDITORS COMMENTS
Saint Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan Order, is depicted in this evocative 16th century print, "Saint Francis Preaching to the Animals," from the Mary Evans Picture Library. The scene captures a pivotal moment in the life of this beloved Italian saint, who was born Giovanni Bernardone in Assisi in 1182. Francis' life took a dramatic turn when he experienced a profound spiritual awakening in 1205, leading him to renounce his wealthy and worldly lifestyle and embrace a life of poverty and devotion to God. The legend of Francis preaching to the animals is rooted in the early Franciscan tradition, which holds that, in the year 1226, Francis traveled to the Umbrian town of Greccio to celebrate the Feast of Christmas. According to the story, Francis invited the local animals to join him in the celebration, and as he preached to the assembled creatures, they were said to have been filled with a sense of peace and reverence. In this print, Saint Francis is shown in the midst of this miraculous event, surrounded by a menagerie of animals, including a wolf, a fox, a lion, and a bird, all of whom are depicted with expressions of awe and reverence. The print's rich colors and intricate details bring the scene to life, transporting us back to a time when the natural world was seen as a sacred reflection of the divine. The image of Saint Francis preaching to the animals has become an enduring symbol of his deep connection to nature and his belief in the inherent worth and dignity of all creatures. Today, Saint Francis is revered as the patron saint of animals, the environment, and Italy, and his legacy continues to inspire millions around the world.
