1182 1226 Assisi Crucified Francis Jesus Vision
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the pivotal moment when Saint Francis of Assisi (1182-1226) received the most profound and transformative vision of his life. The scene unfolds in the quiet solitude of a forest, where Francis, with hands folded in prayer and eyes fixed on the heavens, is struck by an otherworldly apparition. At the heart of the vision, the crucified figure of Jesus Christ hangs in agonizing isolation, his suffering body a testament to the love and sacrifice of the divine. The year was likely around 1205, when Francis, then in his late twenties, was living a life of poverty and devotion in the Umbrian hills of central Italy. As the story goes, the saint was moved to tears by the sight of a crucifix in a run-down church, and begged Christ to reveal himself. The vision that ensued left an indelible mark on Francis, inspiring him to dedicate his life to following the teachings of Christ and spreading the message of God's love. This powerful image, a testament to the enduring legacy of Saint Francis and his vision, is a reminder of the transformative power of faith and the capacity of the human spirit to rise above the mundane and embrace the divine. The details of the print, from the intricately rendered folds of Francis's habit to the expressive faces of the figures, transport us back to a time when the line between the sacred and the secular was more porous, and the world was still a place of wonder and mystery.
