"Saint Roch: A Symbol of Healing and Devotion" The late 15th-century artwork, "The Healing of Saint Roch, " by the German Master, depicts the miraculous powers of this revered saint. Known for his ability to heal those suffering from the plague, Saint Roch's image is captured in a metalcut created by the Workshop of Master of the Cologne Arms in 1480 or after. Intriguingly, Plate 36 from the portfolio "Spanish Colonial Designs of New Mexico" showcases an unknown creator's interpretation of Saint Roch. This plate offers a glimpse into how his veneration transcended time and geography. Another mysterious depiction can be found in Plate 36 titled "St. Roch" from the same portfolio. Created by an unknown artist between 1934 and 1942, it adds to our understanding of how this saint was perceived throughout history. Frank Edwin Scott's photograph captures Rue Saint Honore named after Saint Roche himself. The street stands as a testament to his enduring legacy. E. Boyd's Bulto St. Rocce sculpture from 1935/1942 further immortalizes this beloved figure through artistry that evokes devotion and reverence. Jean Duvet's creation portrays Saints Sebastian, Anthony, and Roch together—an homage to their shared dedication to healing and protection against diseases. One particularly poignant representation shows Saint Roch kneeling on a stone with his faithful dog behind him—a powerful symbol reminding us that even during times of hardship, we are not alone; there is always hope for healing and comfort. An early German artwork dating back to the early 16th century presents another enigmatic portrayal of Saint Roch—his presence resonating across borders and centuries. "The Madonna of Saint Sebastian, " surrounded by angels, serves as a reminder that faith often intertwines with other saints' devotions—a collective force working towards spiritual well-being.
