EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic depiction of H Benedict of Nursia, created by the talented artist Hieronymus Wierix between 1563 and 1619. The image portrays H Benedict, the revered abbot of Monte Cassino and founder of the Benedictine Order, along with his distinctive attributes such as an aspergillum, a book, a cup broken in half, a raven holding a loaf of bread on its beak, and a sieve tray. The artwork beautifully captures various scenes from St. Benedict's life. One scene depicts him throwing himself into a naked thorn bush to overcome temptations of the flesh and women. Another scene shows St. Benedict performing rituals like sprinkling holy water or conducting exorcisms using a Bible and chalice. Notably, this print also includes significant moments from St. Benedict's journey to Rome accompanied by Nurse Cyrilla. It portrays their broken sieve being miraculously restored after it broke while on their trip due to an envious priest's actions. Overall, this print offers viewers glimpses into the extraordinary life of St. Benedict – his visions from God, his unwavering dedication to religion and spirituality within Christianity – all depicted through Quint Lox's lens in stunning detail.
