EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Saint Helena" by Michael Snijders depicts the revered figure of Empress Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine the Great. The image showcases her significant role in Christianity as she is portrayed with various attributes associated with her life and achievements. In this artwork, Saint Helena stands gracefully amidst a church backdrop adorned with a royal crown, thorns, cross, and nails - symbolic representations of her deep devotion to the faith. As she looks on attentively, workmen can be seen diligently using shovels to search the ground for something significant. The picture alludes to an important event in Christian history - the finding of the Holy Cross on Calvary (Golgotha) in 326 AD. It was during this momentous year that Saint Helena embarked on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem and discovered what is believed to be Christ's crucifixion site along with remnants of his cross. With its rich symbolism and attention to detail, this artwork beautifully captures Saint Helena's unwavering commitment to her faith and her relentless pursuit of religious relics. Quint Lox skillfully presents us with a thought-provoking visual representation that pays homage to both historical significance and family ties within Christianity. On August 18th each year, believers commemorate Saint Helena's Feast Day as they reflect upon her remarkable contributions towards shaping their faith. This particular piece from Liszt Collection serves as a timeless reminder of Saint Helena's profound impact on Christianity throughout history.
