EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite wooden sculpture titled "St Helena, 1922" by Eric Gill. Measuring at a delicate size of 6.3x3x2 cm, this artwork is housed in the prestigious Wolseley Fine Arts gallery in London, UK. The sculpture depicts St Helena, an influential figure from ancient times who was both a saint and empress. As the consort of Emperor Constantius and mother to Emperor Constantine the Great, she played a significant role in shaping Christianity's history. The artist skillfully captures her essence through intricate carving techniques on wood. In this statuette, we see St Helena seated gracefully with a serene expression on her face. Clasping a cross close to her heart, she embodies devotion and faithfulness to Christian beliefs. The detailed craftsmanship brings out every contour of her form as well as the mountaintop crucifix that symbolizes sacrifice and redemption. Eric Gill's work not only pays homage to St Helena but also serves as a testament to his mastery in sculpting religious subjects. This photograph allows us to appreciate the beauty of this carved masterpiece while reminding us of its historical significance within Christianity.
