EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Hospitaller monk of the church of Saint-Jacques-du-Haut-Pas in Paris, also known as the Bridge-Building Brotherhood. The Frere Hospitalier de Saint Jacques du Haut-Pas, or Frere Pontife, is depicted in this handcoloured woodblock engraving created by Jacques Charles Bar and published in Abbot Tirons Histoire et Costumes des Ordres Religieux in 1845. The image portrays a member of this religious order dressed in their distinctive habit and robe. The Hospitallers were part of a civil, military, and religious order that played an essential role during the Crusades. Known for their chivalry and dedication to serving others, these knights turned monks provided care to pilgrims traveling through Paris. The intricate details captured by Bar's illustration highlight the rich history and significance of this brotherhood within the Church. Their mission extended beyond spiritual guidance as they were responsible for constructing bridges throughout Paris, hence earning them their alternative name - Bridge-Building Brotherhood. This print not only offers a glimpse into the past but also serves as a reminder of the diverse roles individuals have played within religious orders throughout history. It invites viewers to appreciate both the artistic beauty of Bar's work and reflect on the historical importance of organizations like the Hospitallers in shaping our world today.
