EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image, Queen Bertha, a pivotal figure in the spread of Christianity in Anglo-Saxon England, is depicted in deep prayer at an ornate altar. Born in the 6th century as the daughter of Charibert I, the Merovingian King of Paris, Bertha later became the wife of Ethelbert, King of Kent. Her influence over her husband played a crucial role in the introduction of Christianity to the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. Bertha's story is one of religious and cultural significance. Kneeling before the altar, she is shown in the traditional pose of devotion, her hands folded in prayer. The image captures the essence of Bertha's deep faith and her commitment to spreading the teachings of Christianity. The setting of the image is reminiscent of the rich artistic traditions of the 7th century. The intricately carved altar, with its ornate decorations and symbols, is a testament to the artistic and cultural exchange between the Merovingian and Anglo-Saxon worlds. The image also underscores the importance of the role of women in the spread of Christianity, as Bertha's influence led to the conversion of her husband and the establishment of Christianity in England. Bertha's legacy as a saint is a testament to her enduring impact on the religious and cultural history of Europe. Her story bridges the divide between the Merovingian kingdoms of France and the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of England, highlighting the interconnectedness of European history and the role of individuals in shaping the course of history. This powerful and evocative image of Queen Bertha in prayer serves as a reminder of her significant role in the spread of Christianity in Europe and her enduring influence on the religious and cultural history of the continent.
