EDITORS COMMENTS
The Birth of Saint George" is a captivating British ballad obtained and expanded by Thomas Percy in the late 18th century. This historical narrative, rooted in myth and legend, tells the story of the revered Saint George, the patron saint of England. The image depicts the miraculous moment of Saint George's birth, as his mother, a noblewoman named Felicity, holds him in her arms. Thomas Percy, a renowned antiquarian and scholar, was instrumental in preserving and disseminating traditional English ballads. He collected and published a significant number of these ballads in his influential work, "Reliques of Ancient English Poetry," first published in 1765. The "Birth of Saint George" ballad is one of the many gems included in this collection. The origins of the Saint George legend trace back to the late 3rd or early 4th century, with various versions emerging over time. The most popular account tells of a Roman soldier named George, who was born in Cappadocia, in present-day Turkey. George's unique upbringing, marked by his Christian faith and miraculous protection from harm, eventually led him to be venerated as a saint. The ballad captures the essence of this intriguing history, weaving together elements of faith, valor, and the supernatural. The image of Saint George's birth serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of storytelling and the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire and captivate us. This beautiful print, with its intricate details and vivid colors, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when such ballads were passed down through generations, preserving the tales and traditions of a nation.
