EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures a remarkable moment in history, depicting Saint Francois-de-Sales (1567-1622), the bishop of Geneva and patron of journalists, crossing the Dranse River on an ice board. The drawing by Lecoultre, featured in "Le Pelerin" on January 28th, 1923, beautifully portrays this extraordinary event. Saint Francois-de-Sales was known for his evangelization efforts in Chablais and his unwavering dedication to spreading the word of God. In this image, he fearlessly navigates across the frozen river using an ice board as a means of transportation. This act symbolizes both his courage and determination to reach out to those in need. The picturesque landscape surrounding him showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Swiss Alps. The snow-capped mountains serve as a majestic backdrop for this historic scene. As Saint Francois-de-Sales glides across the icy surface, one can't help but be inspired by his faith and resilience. This artwork not only highlights the religious significance of Saint Francois-de-Sales' mission but also pays homage to journalism as he is considered its patron saint. It serves as a reminder that even amidst challenging circumstances or treacherous terrain, there are individuals who will go above and beyond to fulfill their calling. Stefano Bianchetti's masterful reproduction allows us to appreciate this historical moment while preserving its artistic integrity. This print is a testament to both faith and artistry—a timeless piece that continues to inspire generations with its profound message.
