EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a legendary tale of faith, sacrifice, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. In this image, we witness Saint Cado (also known as Cadoc or Catuod or Catoc or Cazut or Cadochus), a revered Christian figure, engaging in an extraordinary agreement with the devil himself. The scene unfolds as Saint Cado presents a cat to the devil in exchange for his assistance in constructing a bridge. This symbolic act represents the triumph of human ingenuity over supernatural forces, showcasing the power of Christendom against all odds. The saint's unwavering devotion to his beliefs is palpable as he fearlessly confronts darkness head-on. Dating back to 1855 by French School artist Perret, this popular depiction has become an iconic representation of religious folklore. Stefano Bianchetti's masterful engraving brings out every intricate detail, emphasizing the intensity and significance of this momentous event. As viewers contemplate this profound artwork, they are reminded of the timeless themes it embodies: faith tested through adversity, selflessness in service to others, and the ultimate victory of light over darkness. It serves as a powerful reminder that even when faced with formidable challenges, our convictions can guide us towards building bridges that connect communities and transcend boundaries. This remarkable print invites us into a world where spirituality intertwines with legend—a testament to humanity's unyielding quest for goodness amidst life's trials.
