EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the essence of Saint Francis of Assisi (1182-1226), the Italian Catholic friar and patron saint of animals and the environment. Known for his profound love for nature and the creatures that inhabit it, Francis is depicted in this print preaching to a flock of birds, symbolizing his deep connection with the natural world. The scene is believed to have taken place in the Umbrian countryside, where Francis lived as a hermit and devoted himself to a simple life in harmony with nature. Francis, dressed in the brown robes of the Franciscan Order he founded, extends his arms in a gesture of peace and love towards the birds, who gather around him in rapt attention. The serene expression on his face and the gentle gaze of the birds convey a sense of unity and harmony between man and nature. The origins of this iconic image can be traced back to the 13th century, with the first known depiction appearing in a fresco in the Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi in Italy. Over the centuries, the image of Saint Francis preaching to the birds has become a powerful symbol of his reverence for all living creatures and his belief in the interconnectedness of all things. This print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the enduring legacy of Saint Francis of Assisi and his profound impact on the spiritual and artistic traditions of Western civilization.
