EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the beloved Christmas carol, "Good King Wenceslas" in a stunning illustration from A Picture Song Book dating back to 1910. Created by George Howard, the 9th Earl of Carlisle, this colour lithograph depicts the heartwarming scene of Good King Wenceslas himself. Intriguingly, this illustration portrays Saint Venceslas as a young man carrying a heavy load of logs on his back through snowy footprints. The image beautifully conveys warmth and compassion as he braves the cold to help those less fortunate. This depiction pays homage to Saint Venceslas' legacy as Duke of Bohemia and patron saint of Bohemia since the 11th century. The vibrant colours used in this artwork bring life to every detail - from the boy's rosy cheeks to his determined expression while assisting others. It serves as a reminder that even during challenging times, acts of kindness can warm hearts and inspire hope. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are transported into an era where Christmas carols echoed through homes filled with joy and love. It reminds us that traditions like these have stood the test of time and continue to touch our souls today. This extraordinary piece is part of a private collection but remains accessible for all to admire its historical significance and artistic beauty. Let it serve as an emblematic representation not only for Good King Wenceslas but also for humanity's enduring spirit in spreading goodwill throughout generations.
