EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "Saint Denis of the Nativity (Blessed Peter Berthelot)" captures a powerful moment in history. Created in the 19th century by an anonymous artist, this pious image depicts the martyrdom of Saint Denis in Sumatra. Saint Denis, also known as Blessed Peter Berthelot, was a clergyman and member of the Carmelite religious order. He met his tragic fate while spreading Christianity in Indonesia during the early 17th century. This engraving showcases both his devotion to his faith and the violence he faced for it. In this intricate artwork, we see Saint Denis surrounded by angels and seraphs, symbolizing divine protection amidst persecution. The Asian setting reflects both his mission work among native populations and the rich cultural tapestry of Indonesia. This print serves as a testament to Christian values and religious dedication despite adversity. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by individuals like Saint Denis who fearlessly practiced their faith even at great personal risk. Luisa Ricciarini's private collection now houses this historical piece, preserving its significance for future generations. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are reminded not only of Saint Denis' martyrdom but also of humanity's enduring quest for spiritual fulfillment across different civilizations throughout time.
