"The Patron: A Guardian Angel and a Source of Inspiration" In the world of art, religion, and even nightlife, the concept of a patron has played an influential role throughout history. From The Fall of the Damned by Rubens to The Fall of the Rebel Angels by Bruegel, patrons have often been depicted as guardian angels guiding humanity through its trials and tribulations. One such example is Honorius Patron Saint, who symbolizes divine protection and guidance. Just like Harry's New York bar in Paris served as a haven for artists seeking inspiration in the 1920s, these patrons offer solace and support to those in need. Saint Francis of Assisi found his patronage from nature itself, becoming known as the patron saint of animals and ecology. Meanwhile, Saint Fiacre found solace in cultivating gardens as he became associated with horticulture. The power of patrons extends beyond religious figures; they can also be found within political realms. Saint Yves was revered as a protector for lawyers and judges during medieval times when justice needed safeguarding. Artists too sought their own patrons to sustain their creative endeavors. Antonello da Messina's masterpiece depicts Saint Jerome immersed in his study - perhaps inspired by his own benefactor who supported him on this artistic journey. Even hunting had its patron saint - St Hubert - whose image was immortalized by Durer. This connection between spirituality and outdoor pursuits highlights how diverse patronages can be. And let us not forget about women saints like Saint Brigid of Ireland who embodied strength amidst adversity while advocating for equality among genders. Beyond spiritual or artistic realms lies another type of patronage - that provided by organizations such as Licensed Victuallers Asylum which offered refuge to those facing hardships within the hospitality industry. Throughout history, whether it be through heavenly intervention or human generosity, patrons have acted as guardians watching over individuals or communities in various aspects of life.
