EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the regal portrait of St Clotilda, a Burgundian princess who played a significant role in shaping history. In 1886, this image was published in Butlers Lives of the Saints by Rev Alban Butler, offering a glimpse into the life and influence of this remarkable woman. St Clotilda's story is intertwined with that of her husband, Clovis I, the Frankish king. It is widely believed that she was instrumental in his conversion to Christianity during the 6th century. The profound impact of her faith led to Clovis' baptism in 496 AD, marking a pivotal moment for both their lives and for Christianity itself. In this vibrant color portrait from the 19th century, St Clotilda exudes grace and strength as she gazes confidently at the viewer. Her royal status as queen is evident through her elegant attire and dignified posture. As a devout Christian and later canonized saint, she represents not only religious devotion but also female empowerment within medieval society. This historical photograph captures an extraordinary woman whose legacy continues to inspire generations. St Clotilda's unwavering faith and influential role as queen have left an indelible mark on France and beyond. Through this print collector's lens, we are transported back in time to witness the power of religion intersecting with monarchy - an enduring testament to one woman's determination to shape history through her beliefs.
