EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of St Augustine of Hippo, one of the great fathers of the early Christian church. Born in 350 and passing away in 430, St Augustine made significant contributions to theology and philosophy during his lifetime. In this hand-coloured woodcut from 1493, we see him depicted with his son Ambrose by his side. St Augustine is portrayed as a bishop, wearing a majestic mitre that symbolizes his high ecclesiastical rank. His dignified presence exudes wisdom and devotion to his faith. The intricate details brought to life through the delicate hand-colouring technique further enhance the depth and richness of this historical artwork. Ambrose, standing beside his father, represents an important connection between generations within Christianity. As they both gaze into the distance, their expressions hint at profound contemplation and spiritual enlightenment. This remarkable woodcut not only captures the essence of these influential figures but also serves as a testament to their enduring legacy within religious history. It reminds us of their invaluable contributions towards shaping early Christian thought and doctrine. As part of Universal Images Group's vast collection, this print offers viewers a glimpse into centuries past while honoring two individuals who played pivotal roles in establishing Christianity as we know it today.
