EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the meeting of two influential figures from different realms - St Francis of Assisi and Doge Francesco Dona. The image, taken from a beautifully illuminated manuscript in the Bodleian Library collection at Oxford, transports us back to 1548. St Francis, known as the founder of the Franciscan Order of monks and revered for his devotion to God and love for all creatures, stands tall in his distinctive habit. His serene expression reflects his deep spirituality and unwavering commitment to spreading peace. Beside him stands Doge Francesco Dona, the ruler of Venice during this period. Dressed in regal attire befitting his position, he exudes authority and power. This unexpected encounter between a religious figure and a political leader symbolizes unity between church and state. The vibrant colors used in this print enhance its visual appeal while also representing the rich cultural heritage of Italy. The medieval setting further adds an air of mystique to this historical moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded that faith transcends boundaries - both geographical and social. It serves as a testament to how individuals with diverse backgrounds can come together under shared values for the betterment of society. This print is not just an artistic masterpiece; it is a window into history that invites us to reflect on our own beliefs and relationships with others.
