From Prince Albert's reign in 1859 to Empress Eugenie's elegant presence surrounded by her ladies in waiting, captured by Arthur Leonard Cox in the early 1920s, this is a tale that spans generations. Immerse yourself in the opulence of The Blue Drawing Room at Buckingham Palace, London, circa 1894. Its creator may be unknown, but its grandeur speaks volumes about the era it represents. Meanwhile, Veronica Stern's poignant depiction of The Death of St. Francis Xavier transports us back to the mid-18th century when faith and devotion were revered. Caylus' masterpiece from around 1729 showcases another portrayal of The Death of Saint Francis Xavier—a testament to his enduring legacy as a patron saint. And who can forget Le Triomphe de Saint Ignace et Saint Francis Xavier? This triumph immortalizes their spiritual journey through divine intervention. But it isn't just saints and spirituality that define our narrative; we also encounter remarkable women like Empress Eugenie and Countess Alexander Nikolaevitch Lamsdorff—powerful figures whose influence shaped their respective eras. Franz Xaver Winterhalter's mesmerizing portrait Florinda captures beauty frozen in time—an enchanting glimpse into an artist’s imagination. And while Empress Eugenie remains forever mysterious in an image from 1936, Her Majesty Queen Victoria herself graces us with her regal presence during the mid-1860s. Join us on this extraordinary voyage through time as we unravel the story behind each artwork linked to Francis Xavier—a name synonymous with nobility, faith, and artistic brilliance.
