Christ Crucifixion Depicting Francesco Issued Jesus Monk Originally Press 1923
EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking illustration is taken from the "Fioretti Di San Francesco" or "The Little Flowers of Saint Francis of Assisi," a beloved devotional text written originally by Saint Francis of Assisi himself. The image, depicting the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ, dates back to approximately 1923, as published by the Ashendene Press. In this powerful scene, Jesus Christ, the Savior of mankind, is shown in the act of being crucified, with his eyes closed and a serene expression on his face. His gaze, however, is not directed towards the crowd that surrounds him, but rather towards a devoted monk, who is depicted at the foot of the cross, deeply engrossed in prayer and worship. The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ is a central theme in Christian faith, symbolizing the ultimate sacrifice made by God for the redemption of humanity. The image of Jesus looking down upon the monk in this illustration serves as a reminder of the deep connection between the divine and the human, and the importance of faith and devotion in the face of suffering and adversity. The "Fioretti Di San Francesco" is a collection of stories and miracles that highlight the life and teachings of Saint Francis of Assisi, a beloved figure in the Catholic Church known for his humility, poverty, and love for nature and all living creatures. The text has been a source of inspiration for generations, and continues to be a beloved devotional resource for many today.
