EDITORS COMMENTS
Saint Nicolas of Myra, also known as Saint Nicholas, is depicted in this 14th century print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The image showcases the legendary bishop in the act of rescuing a tub full of children from a wicked butcher. According to historical accounts, Saint Nicolas discovered that the butcher had planned to sell the children as sausage meat. With a heart full of compassion and a spirit of generosity, the saint intervened, saving the children from a gruesome fate. Saint Nicolas, who was born in the Mediterranean city of Patara in Lycia, is one of the most revered saints in Christian tradition. He is particularly known for his charitable acts and his love for children. The story of his intervention on behalf of the children in Myra is just one of many tales that have contributed to his enduring popularity. This print, which is believed to be from circa 1350, is a testament to the enduring power of Saint Nicolas' story. It is a reminder of the importance of compassion, generosity, and the protection of the innocent. The image of Saint Nicolas, with his long white beard and mitre, gazes down at the children in the tub with a look of deep concern and love. The butcher, who is shown in the background, is depicted as a menacing figure, with a large cleaver in hand and a look of shock on his face as Saint Nicolas rescues the children. This historic print is a beautiful and moving reminder of the power of kindness and the importance of protecting the vulnerable. It is a reminder of the enduring legacy of Saint Nicolas, who continues to be revered as a patron saint of children, sailors, merchants, and students. The image is a testament to the power of art to capture and preserve the stories and values of the past, making them relevant and meaningful for future generations.
