EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "St. Michael of Belgium, 1914" by James Jebusa Shannon takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases a powerful and imposing male figure outdoors, holding a flag that represents his unwavering faith and determination. Dressed in intricate armor with a sword at his side, this man embodies the essence of strength and resilience. The artist skillfully captures the essence of St. Michael, an archangel revered for his role as a protector against evil forces. With outstretched wings and a crucifix held firmly in hand, he stands as an embodiment of Christian values amidst the chaos of war. The presence of flags fluttering in the background symbolizes both national pride and religious devotion intertwined during this tumultuous period. This portrait serves as a reminder that even amid warfare and conflict, spirituality can provide solace and guidance. Originally featured in King Albert's Book published by The Daily Telegraph in London during 1914, this artwork holds historical significance beyond its artistic beauty. It reflects the spirit of unity among nations during World War I when Belgium faced immense challenges. James Jebusa Shannon's masterful use of color brings life to every detail within this oil painting while capturing the intensity behind St. Michael's purposeful gaze. As we admire this piece today, it allows us to reflect on our own beliefs and find inspiration from those who have fought for their convictions throughout history.
