EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a legendary encounter between Saint Bernard and the Devil. The image, a medieval woodcut from the 15th or 16th century, beautifully captures the essence of this French theologian and reformer. Saint Bernard de Clairvaux stands tall and resolute, clad in his flowing robe that signifies his devotion to God. A halo surrounds his head, symbolizing his saintly status and divine connection. With an open book in hand, he represents knowledge and wisdom. Opposite him stands the menacing figure of Satan himself. The Devil is depicted with antlers atop his head, perhaps signifying deceitful allure or manipulation. His presence exudes evil as he tries to tempt Saint Bernard away from righteousness. This woodcut tells a tale of spiritual struggle and triumph over temptation. It reminds us of the eternal battle between good and evil that has been fought throughout history. Through its intricate details and expert craftsmanship, it transports us into a world where legends come alive. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork by Granger Art on Demand titled "Bernard de Clairvaux" we cannot help but be captivated by its historical significance and timeless message: even in the face of darkness, faith can prevail.
