EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Gustave Moreau's masterpiece, "St. Elisabeth of Hungary, or The Miracle of the Roses" created in 1879. With watercolor on paper as his medium, Moreau skillfully captures the essence of Saint Elisabeth de Hongrie (1207-31), who is revered as the patron saint of the poor and sick. In this painting, we witness a momentous event known as "Le Miracle des roses". A devout St. Elisabeth is depicted kneeling in prayer, her delicate hands clasped together in reverence. Surrounding her are vibrant roses that miraculously bloomed during winter at her request to provide sustenance for those suffering from poverty and illness. The artist's symbolic approach shines through with every brushstroke. St. Elisabeth's medieval attire represents her unwavering faith amidst challenging times, while a knight stands beside her as a symbol of chivalry and protection. Moreau's attention to detail brings forth an ethereal quality to this artwork; it transports viewers into a realm where spirituality intertwines with reality. This particular print measures 27.5x19 cm and belongs to a private collection. Displayed at Piccadilly Gallery in London, UK, this French masterpiece continues to captivate audiences even today despite being out of copyright restrictions. It serves as a timeless reminder of St. Elisabeth's compassion towards the less fortunate and her ability to manifest miracles through faith and devotion.
