EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print depicts St Francis Xavier, a Spanish Jesuit missionary who played a significant role in the foundation of the Jesuit order alongside Ignatius Loyola. Revered as an Apostle to the Indies, he was sent by John III on a mission to Portuguese territories. The image portrays his final moments near Canton on December 2nd, 1552. The wood engraving beautifully captures the essence of this remarkable man and his devout dedication to spreading Christianity. St Francis Xavier's vibrant portrait showcases his unwavering faith and commitment to his calling. His piercing gaze reflects both determination and compassion, embodying the spirit of a true missionary. As one gazes upon this print, it is impossible not to be moved by St Francis Xavier's profound impact on religious history. His conversion efforts across different countries and cultures are testament to his tireless work as he sought to bring people closer to God. Ann Ronan Pictures has masterfully preserved this piece of art that serves as a window into both the sixteenth century when St Francis Xavier lived and the nineteenth century when this print was created. It allows us today to appreciate not only his spiritual legacy but also the artistic talent that captured him so vividly. This powerful depiction invites contemplation about our own beliefs and reminds us of those who have dedicated their lives selflessly for their faith throughout history.
