EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, dating back to around 1820, showcases the esteemed Saint Ignatius of Loyola alongside six other theological students. The print captures a significant moment in Catholic history known as the vow of Montmartre on August 15th, 1534 - an event that marked the inception of the Society of Jesus. In this evocative scene, Saint Ignatius and his companions stand within the Crypt of the Martyrium of Sain Denis in Montmartre, Paris. With solemn expressions on their faces, they are seen pronouncing vows of chaste and poverty. This powerful act symbolizes their unwavering commitment to their faith and dedication to serving others. The artist behind this lithograph skillfully portrays each figure with intricate detail and emotion. Their robes flow gracefully as if caught by a gentle breeze while light streams through stained glass windows, casting ethereal hues across the sacred space. This artwork not only celebrates Saint Ignatius' profound influence but also serves as a testament to religious devotion during this era. It invites viewers into a historical moment where dreams were transformed into reality through unwavering determination and sacrifice. Preserved in private collection for centuries before being brought forth by Bridgeman Images, this print offers us a glimpse into both artistic mastery and spiritual significance. As we gaze upon it today, we can appreciate its timeless beauty while contemplating the enduring legacy left behind by Saint Ignatius and his fellow Jesuits who dedicated their lives to spreading love and compassion
