EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "St Francis sets forth to Friar Leo where perfect joy is found" takes us back to the year 1919. Created by Eugene Burnand, a renowned Swiss artist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, this colour lithograph captures a profound moment in history. The image showcases St Francis of Assisi, one of the most revered figures in Christianity, embarking on a spiritual journey alongside his loyal companion Friar Leo. The composition exudes tranquility and serenity as they traverse through lush landscapes adorned with vibrant flora. As we delve into the narrative behind this artwork, we are reminded of St Francis' unwavering faith and devotion. Seeking enlightenment and solace, he guides Friar Leo towards "perfect joy". This depiction encapsulates their shared pursuit for spiritual fulfillment amidst their monastic lifestyle. Burnand's attention to detail shines through in every brushstroke of this lithograph. The vivid colours bring life to each element within the frame – from St Francis' humble robes to the gentle expressions on their faces. This particular print is part of a private collection but was originally published as an illustration for "The Little Flowers of St Francis" by J M Dent & Sons Limited in 1919. It serves as both a visual testament to Burnand's artistic prowess and an homage to the enduring legacy of St Francis himself.
