The Ascension of St Rose of Lima, 1896
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print created by the talented artist Aubrey Beardsley. Inspired by Albrecht Durer's masterpiece "The Great Fortune". Beardsley's composition depicts the miraculous ascent of St Rose of Lima to heaven. This artwork was originally published in "The Savoy No. 2" and later featured in "The Best of Beardsley" edited by R. A. Walker. In this mesmerizing image, we witness St Rose floating gracefully towards the heavens, surrounded by an aura of divine light. The delicate lines and intricate details showcase Beardsley's mastery in graphic design, capturing both the ethereal nature of the ascension and the decadent movement prevalent during that era. St Rose, a Peruvian saint known for her devotion to God and self-imposed penances, is depicted here as a symbol of faith and spirituality. Her journey towards divinity is further emphasized by the presence of a papal crown above her head, signifying her elevated status within religious circles. Beardsley's artistic interpretation transports us into a realm where magic intertwines with religion, inviting contemplation on themes such as transcendence and devotion. Through his unique style characterized by bold contrasts between light and dark shades, he brings forth an atmosphere filled with mystery and wonder. This remarkable print serves as a testament to Beardsley's contribution to art nouveau aesthetics while paying homage to historical influences like Durer's work. It continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and profound symbolism even today.
