EDITORS COMMENTS
In this color lithograph titled "St Anselm refusing the Archbishopric" we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in religious history. Created by Stephen Reid, an esteemed artist of the early 20th century, this print captures the essence of St Anselm's unwavering devotion and strong sense of duty. The scene depicts St Anselm, adorned in intricate medieval attire, standing before a grand church backdrop. His resolute expression and outstretched hand convey his refusal to accept the prestigious position of Archbishopric. This act symbolizes his commitment to humility and spiritual purity over worldly power. Reid's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing life to the costumes and architectural elements that surround St Anselm. The vibrant colors used further enhance the dramatic impact of this historical moment. This artwork not only showcases Reid's artistic prowess but also serves as a reminder of St Anselm's significant role within British religious history. As one of Britain's most revered saints, his refusal highlights his dedication to upholding moral values within the Church. With its rich symbolism and masterful execution, "St Anselm refusing the Archbishopric" is truly a treasure from our past. It invites us to reflect on themes such as faith, integrity, and selflessness while appreciating both Reid's talent as an artist and Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving fine art for future generations.
