EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures the essence of Saint Anschaire, also known as Anschaire de Breme, Oscar ou Ansgar (801-865), preaching Christianity with great fervor. Painted by Gustaf Cederstroem in 1889, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 64x136.5 cm and is housed at the Nationalmuseum Stockholm. In this remarkable artwork, we witness Saint Anschaire standing tall before a vast crowd of people from all walks of life. His commanding presence and outstretched arms convey his dedication to spreading the Christian faith far and wide. The painting beautifully depicts the bishop's unwavering commitment to his mission amidst an army of warriors and Vikings. Set against a backdrop reminiscent of medieval Scandinavia, the image transports us back to the 9th century when religion played a pivotal role in shaping society. With its rich colors and intricate details, Cederstroem's work brings to life an era where communication was paramount for religious leaders like Saint Anschaire. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into historical events that shaped Germany during the Middle Ages. It reminds us of how religion influenced populations across Europe and highlights Saint Anschaire's significant contribution to spreading Christianity throughout Sweden.
