EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the early 20th century depicts Hildegard of Bingen, a remarkable figure in history. Hildegard (1098-1179) was a German Benedictine abbess who excelled in various fields such as writing, composing music, philosophy, and mysticism. Known for her visionary abilities and vast knowledge across disciplines, she is considered a polymath. The image showcases Hildegard with an aura of wisdom and grace. Dressed in traditional religious attire, she emanates a sense of spiritual enlightenment that captivates the viewer. The artist has beautifully captured her serene expression and gentle demeanor. The engraving transports us back to medieval times when Hildegard lived during the 11th and 12th centuries. It offers a glimpse into her childhood within a devout family and highlights her eventual journey into becoming part of the Benedictine order. Hildegard's contribution to religion and education cannot be overstated. As one of the few women scholars of her time, she broke barriers by sharing her profound insights through writings on theology and natural sciences. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation. It allows us to appreciate the legacy left behind by this extraordinary woman whose influence continues to inspire generations even today.
