EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Crozier of the Abbesses of the Cistercian Convent Abbaye du Lys" with its intricate details and historical significance. Crafted by the French School in the 13th century, this silver gilt and rock crystal crozier is a remarkable piece housed at Musee Lambinet in Versailles, France. Believed to be a gift from Queen Blanche of Castile, who founded the abbey in 1244 alongside her son Saint Louis, this crozier holds great religious and symbolic value. The pastoral lamb made of rock crystal adds an ethereal touch to this sacred artifact. Interestingly, Queen Blanche's heart was laid to rest at Lys in 1253 after being removed from her other foundation at Maubuisson. This further emphasizes the spiritual importance attached to this crozier within Cistercian tradition. With its ornate design featuring crosses, coats of arms, and other medieval symbols associated with authority and piety, it serves as a powerful representation of faith for both nuns and visitors alike. The crosier's vermeil accents add a touch of opulence while maintaining reverence for its purpose. As we admire this photograph captured by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded not only of the artistic mastery behind such creations but also their ability to transcend time and connect us with centuries-old traditions rooted in devotion and spirituality.
